Violeta Jardin: The Missing Link in TXA Use for Postpartum Hemorrhage

Violeta Jardin, General Manager at Haemoview Diagnostics, shared a post on LinkedIn:

”New from the SafePartum Maternal Safety Collaborative: an Expert Review Statement on TXA in obstetric hemorrhage via Vibha Mahendra — and it asks the question protocols often skip: which patients actually benefit?

The physiology is the key: TXA blocks the fibrin-dependent tPA route of plasmin generation, so it’s most rational in hyperfibrinolytic hemorrhage.

In dilutional coagulopathy it does nothing — you need fibrinogen, plasma, platelets. In consumptive coagulopathy it can worsen microvascular thrombosis. And benefit disappears (harm becomes possible) beyond the 3-hour window from birth.

The missing piece for bedside teams is phenotyping in real time, inside that window.

That’s exactly the gap APIRO Diagnostics Kft. TPA assay® closes — a whole-blood, tPA-challenged fibrinolysis read-out that flags hyperfibrinolysis at the bedside, so TXA is targeted to the patients who will actually respond, not given empirically.”
