Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kaisi, K. A., Trampuz, A., Okoro, T., & Karbysheva, S. (2025, March). IN VITRO ASSESSMENT OF THE ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF TRANEXAMIC ACID: IMPLICATIONS FOR INTRAOPERATIVE PROPHYLAXIS OF IMPLANT-ASSOCIATED INFECTIONS IN ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY. Presented at The British Hip Society (BHS) Meeting 2025, Harrogate, England

Tranexamic Acid (TXA) is a potent antifibrinolytic agent widely used to reduce perioperative blood loss and transfusion in arthroplasty surgery. It effectively conserves blood without increasing the risk of thrombosis. TXA may lower infection risk po...
