Episode 31: TXA for EPISTAXIS
There has been a lot of talk about the benefits of TXA in major trauma with small differences in outcomes. If you’re looking for a big treatment benefit for TXA, look no further than the very sexy nose bleeds. This is an easy and safe intervention that EMS can provide that makes a real difference in a growing number of patients.
