First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 33 times
Summary
This study tests whether giving tranexamic acid (TXA) through a vein during weight-loss surgery can reduce blood loss in patients with a very high body mass index (BMI over 45). About 128 high-risk adults will receive TXA or a placebo to see if it lowers the need for blood transfusions and prevents complications. The goal is to make bariatric surgery safer for people with obesity and related health issues like diabetes or heart disease.
