Bronchoscopic delivery of aminocaproic acid as a treatment for pulmonary bleeding: A case series
ConclusionsEndobronchial administration of ε-aminocaproic acid during bronchoscopy may be a safe and efficacious option in the treatment and prevention of pulmonary bleeding. Further studies are necessary to better define ε-aminocaproic acid's safety profile, optimal routes of administration, and comparative effectiveness to tranexamic acid.
