Effects of tranexamic acid on platelet function and thrombin generation (ETAPlaT): WOMAN trial sub-study. [PDF]
Background. Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a leading cause of maternal death. Tranexamic acid (TXA) has the potential to reduce bleeding and a large randomized placebo controlled trial of its effect in women with PPH (The WOMAN trial) is underway.

Clotting Phenomena at the Blood-Polymer Interface and Development of Blood Compatible Polymeric Surfaces [PDF]
In the past two decades many attempts have been made to relate surface and interfacial parameters with the blood compatibility of polymeric surfaces. It is however doubtful if by a single parameter the behaviour of blood on a surface can be predicted ...
