The use of tranexamic acid (TXA) has markedly increased since the results of the CRASH-II trial were published. In addition to its use in trauma, TXA has been evaluated and used in numerous other conditions, including post-partum hemorrhage and epistaxis. Recently, the HALT-IT Trial was published online in the Lancet, which evaluated the use of TXA in patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding. In this podcast we discuss the HALT-IT Trial and its implications for clinical practice.
