Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Many RCT(randomized controlled trial) studies reported that tranexamic acid reduced blood loss in women who had elective cesareans. However, most of these elective cesareans are without high-risk factors of postpartum hemorrhage, such as placenta previa. The prophylactic use of tranexamic acid in the placenta previa is not clear.

studies had poor quality and lacked adequate power to assess severe adverse events.
