Official Title: Efficacy of ε-Aminocaproic Acid (EACA) in Children Undergoing Craniofacial Reconstruction Surgery

Brief Summary:

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Amicar (ε-aminocaproic acid) is effective in reducing blood loss in children undergoing craniofacial reconstruction surgery.
