About this trial

PRIORITY is a pragmatic, multi-center, cluster crossover trial that aims to evaluate whether implementing a policy of routine extended (intraoperative and 4 hour after transfer to ICU) use of fibrinolysis inhibitors leads to a decrease in post-operative blood transfusion compared to a policy that only involves intraoperative use.
