First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tests whether giving tranexamic acid (TXA) during weight-loss surgery can reduce blood loss in people with a very high body mass index (BMI over 45). About 128 high-risk patients will receive TXA, and doctors will measure bleeding during and after surgery, as well as check for side effects like blood clots or infections. The goal is to make bariatric surgery safer for those with obesity and related health conditions.
