Effects of tranexamic acid on postoperative bleeding and related hematochemical variables in coronary surgery: Comparison between on-pump and off-pump techniques
Bleeding and inflammation are major complications of extracorporeal circulation. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting may reduce the rate of complications, but it can only be applied in selected cases. Pilot studies have shown a potential benefit from the use of antifibrinolytic drugs, but efficacy in randomized double-blind studies evaluating off- and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting has not been proved.
