The application of tranexamic acid in respiratory intervention complicated with bleeding.

Tranexamic acid (TA) is a well-established antifibrinolytic agent utilized across various medical scenarios to manage bleeding, including surgical, traumatic, postpartum, and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Despite its widespread application, the systematic evaluation of TA's efficacy in achieving hemostasis during interventional pulmonary procedures remains limited. This review aims to address this gap by examining the utility and effectiveness of TA in promoting hemostasis during pulmonary interventions, encompassing procedures such as bronchial artery embolization, percutaneous lung biopsy, bronchoscopy, and pleural procedures. By synthesizing existing evidence, this review seeks to provide valuable insights into the potential role of TA in mitigating hemorrhage following interventional pulmonary procedures, thereby informing clinical practice and guiding future research endeavors.
