et brought the debate over Trasylol back into the spotlight when a retrospective study showed risks related to Trasylol to be more prevalent with certain surgical procedures. Dr. Mangano's observational study of over 5,000 patients in 17 countries, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in January 2006, showed that Trasylol doubled the risk of kidney failure in patients. A Canadian study on the effects of Trasylol, known as BART (Blood conservation using Antifibrinolytics in a Randomized Trial), was halted in October 2006 when the drug appeared to have an increased risk of death compared to other drugs in the study.
