The effect of prophylactic use of tranexamic acid for cesarean section.

Treatment with tranexamic acid (TxA) significantly reduces maternal death due to postpartum hemorrhage. There is increasing interest in whether it can also be used as prophylaxis for postpartum hemorrhage, especially during cesarean sections (CS). This impact study is aimed to determine the effect of routine prophylactic tranexamic acid during CS on maternal hemorrhage and the rate of the associated side effects. This retrospective population-based cohort single-center impact study include 2000 women who delivered by CS divided into two groups with ( Women who did not receive TxA prophylactic had a higher rate of >10% hemoglobin decrease and a higher rate of ≥2 g/dL hemoglobin decrease Than those who received TxA prophylaxis ( The finding of our study suggest that prophylactic administration of TxA prior to CS improves maternal and neonatal outcomes.
