Seriously injured patients frequently develop coagulopathy, which makes resuscitation (and survival) more challenging. This study used an adult swine model with hemorrhage and aortic crossclamping to simulate military injury and resuscitation. Half of the animals then received IV TXA, the other half had it administered via IO.
