Abstract
Sixty patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass graft operations were randomly assigned to receive epsilon-aminocaproic acid or placebo to test whether antifibrinolytic therapy would decrease postoperative bleeding. A small but significant decrease in bleeding was observed in the treated group without complications resulting from treatment with epsilon-aminocaproic acid.Entities:
