Title: Tranexamic Acid for the Treatment of Postpartum Haemorrhage: An International Randomised, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Trial
Brief Summary: The WOMAN trial is a large pragmatic randomised double-blind, placebo controlled trial to quantify the effects of the early administration of tranexamic acid on death, hysterectomy and other relevant outcomes. 20,000 adult women, after delivery who have clinically diagnosed postpartum haemorrhage, are eligible if the responsible doctor is for any reason substantially uncertain whether or not to use an antifibrinolytic agent. Additionally, TWO nested studies will be conducted in a subset of women trial participants. The first nested study (ETAC) aims to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) on markers of coagulation in 400 women randomised to the WOMAN trial. The second nested study (ETAPLAT) aims to evaluate the haemostatic effect and antithrombotic effect of TXA in 128 women randomised to the WOMAN trial.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Informed consent from participant.
2. Women who develop PPH defined as bleeding from uterus and/or the birth canal within 24 hours postpartum.
3. Age ≥ 18 years.
4. If vaginal birth: indication of one of the following procedures at the operation theatre with anaesthetic assistance: a) Estimated blood loss ≥ 500 ml and indication of manual removal of placenta or b) Indication of manual exploration of the uterus due to continuous bleeding after the birth of placenta.
5. If birth by Caesarean section: A perioperative blood loss ≥ 1000 ml.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with known inherited deficiencies of coagulation.
2. Patients in anti-thrombotic treatment prepartum due to increased risk of thrombosis.
3. Patients with a pre-pregnancy weight \<45 kg.
4. Patients who refuse to receive blood transfusion.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

All trauma patients with ongoing significant haemorrhage (systolic blood pressure less than 90 mmHg and/or heart rate more than 110 beats per minute), or who are considered to be at risk of significant haemorrhage, and are within 8 hours of the injury, are eligible for trial entry if they appear to be at least 16 years old. Although entry is allowed up to 8 hours from injury, the earlier that patients can be treated the better.

Exclusion Criteria:

The fundamental eligibility criterion is the responsible doctor's 'uncertainty' as to whether or not to use an antifibrinolytic agent in a particular adult with traumatic haemorrhage. Patients for whom the responsible doctor considers there is a clear indication for antifibrinolytic therapy should not be randomised. Likewise, patients for whom there is considered to be a clear contraindication to antifibrinolytic therapy (such as, perhaps, those who have clinical evidence of a thrombotic disseminated intravascular coagulation) should not be randomised. Where the responsible doctor is substantially uncertain as to whether or not to use an antifibrinolytic, all these patients are eligible for randomisation and should be considered for the trial. There are no other pre-specified exclusion criteria
C: All legally adult women with postpartum haemorrhage following vaginal or caesarean section delivery who have a clinical diagnosis of postpartum haemorrhage. The clinical diagnosis of PPH may be based on any of the following:

* Blood loss after vaginal delivery \> 500 mL OR
* \> 1,000 mL after caesarean section OR blood loss sufficient to compromise the haemodynamic status of the woman The fundamental eligibility criterion is the responsible clinician's 'uncertainty' as to whether or not to use an antifibrinolytic agent in a particular woman with postpartum haemorrhage.
* Women for whom the responsible doctor considers there is a clear indication for antifibrinolytic therapy should not be randomised.
* Women for whom there is considered to be a clear contraindication to antifibrinolytic therapy should not be randomised.

Where the responsible clinician is substantially uncertain as to whether or not to use an antifibrinolytic, all these women are eligible for randomisation and should be considered for the trial.

There are no other pre-specified exclusion criteria.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Severe postpartum hemorrhage, i.e non responsive to sulprostone infusion

Exclusion Criteria:

* \< 18 years
* personal antecedent of arterial or venous thrombosis
* written informed consent not approved/signed by the patient or her husband

Answer: C
