Summary

This study looks at whether giving two doses of tranexamic acid (a drug that helps blood clot) is better than one dose at reducing blood loss and the need for blood transfusions in older adults having hip fracture surgery. The trial includes 120 people aged 65 and older. Participants will receive either one dose before surgery or two doses (one before and one after). Researchers will track blood loss, transfusions, and safety for up to 90 days after surgery.

Inclusion Criteria: * Written informed consent obtained * Patients aged 65 years or older * Patients with pertrochanteric femoral fracture (AO/OTA classification: 31A1.2, 31A1.3, 31A2, 31A3) or subtrochanteric femoral fracture (AO/OTA classification: 32; fractures from the level of the lesser trochanter to 5 cm distally) * Surgical treatment performed within 48 hours of hospital admission Exclusion Criteria: * Age younger than 65 years * Known allergy or hypersensitivity to tranexamic acid * Active thromboembolic event (deep vein thrombosis, arterial thrombosis, pulmonary embolism) or history of vascular event within the past year (myocardial infarction, coronary or peripheral vascular stenting, thromboembolism, stroke) * Impaired renal function defined as serum creatinine \>120 µmol/L in the last preoperative laboratory test * History of malignant disease * History of seizure disorder or chronic anticonvulsant therapy * Polytrauma or multiple trauma * More than one fracture * Previous fracture of the same hip * Preoperative hemoglobin level \<8 g/dL (last laboratory test before surgery) * Thrombocytopenia or other coagulation disorders * Treatment with vitamin K antagonists with INR \>1.5 * Treatment with low-molecular-weight heparins without appropriate preoperative discontinuation according to clinical protocol (usually ≥24 hours for prophylactic doses and ≥24-36 hours for therapeutic doses) * Treatment with direct oral anticoagulants without appropriate preoperative discontinuation (usually 24-48 hours, depending on renal function and bleeding risk) * Treatment with P2Y12 inhibitors (e.g., ticagrelor, clopidogrel, prasugrel) when, according to anesthesiologist assessment, surgery cannot be safely performed within 48 hours
