About this trial
Investigators hypothesize that topical tranexamic acid will have better or comparable efficacy to topical thrombin in reducing hematoma formation at the wound base. The purpose of the study is to demonstrate that topical tranexamic acid will be a non-inferior alternative medication to the current standard of care,THROMBIN-JMI® , and at a lower cost to the health system.
