NCT01045356

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to measure blood levels of TXA in children having cardiac surgery which requires cardiopulmonary bypass. TXA is used to reduce bleeding during surgery. This study will help determine if the current dosing of TXA results in therapeutic blood levels.
