Bronchoscopy Biopsy Clinical Trial

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Bleeding during transbronchial ro endobronchial biopsy is rather a common complication.

Mostly this is an insignificant bleeding, but in 3% of the biopsies there is a substantial amount of bleeding that requires a special treatment or follow up.

The goal of this study is to examine whether submission of tranexamic acid during the biopsy could diminish the amount of bleeding.
