We compared mortality between severely injured patients at risk for traumatic hemorrhage receiving TXA within 3 h post-injury versus untreated patients. Inverse probability of treatment weighting adjusted for confounders, and multivariate logistic regression assessed 24-h mortality, with extended secondary outcome analyses.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Of 3607 analyzed patients, 502 received TXA within 3 h. TXA reduced 24-h mortality by 38% (marginal odds ratio [mOR], 0.62; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.49-0.78) versus untreated patients. Similar reductions were observed for longer-term mortality. Subgroup analyses revealed reduced mortality when TXA was given within 2 h post-injury (mOR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.45-0.73), doses of 1 g of TXA within 3 h (mOR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.56-0.94), and those with the highest risk of hemorrhage (mOR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.30-0.53). The 24-h mortality reduction was significant for patients with penetrating injury (mOR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.43-0.78) but not for blunt injury patients. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of these findings, with TXA consistently reducing mortality odds by 28%-39% across subgroups.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>Early TXA administration significantly reduced mortality in trauma patients, especially with penetrating injuries and those with the highest risk of hemorrhage. One-gram dosing was as effective as higher doses, and mortality reduction was notable when TXA was given within 2 h post-injury. These findings support TXA use in resource-limited trauma protocols.</p>","PeriodicalId":23266,"journal":{"name":"Transfusion","volume":" ","pages":"S276-S287"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12035990/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143531894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
