Doctors test drug doses to stop surgery bleeding

NCT ID NCT03822793

Summary

This study aimed to find the most effective and safe dose of a common drug, tranexamic acid (TXA), to reduce blood loss during and after hip replacement surgery. Researchers tested four different doses against a placebo in 170 patients to see which worked best at preventing severe drops in blood count and the need for blood transfusions. The trial also monitored patients for potential side effects like blood clots.
