Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Tranexamic acid is a promising option for minimizing blood loss in high-risk bariatric surgery patients, particularly in those with obesity, diabetes, and other comorbidities. When used appropriately, TXA can reduce the need for blood transfusions, maintain hemodynamic stability, and lower the incidence of complications related to blood loss.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The impact of TXA in high-risk individuals undergoing bariatric surgery is of increasing interest, especially given the inherent risks of bleeding and complications associated with these procedures. Bariatric surgery, particularly procedures like Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy, carries a risk of significant blood loss, which may be exacerbated in patients who are morbid obese or have underlying comorbid conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or coagulation disorders.

TXA can effectively reduce intraoperative and postoperative blood loss by stabilizing fibrin clots, which is critical in preventing the need for transfusions and reducing surgical complications. A few studies have explored the use of TXA in bariatric surgery because of the fear of associated increased incidence of embolic complications.

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

After induction of anaesthesia tranexamic acid will be administered at the start of surgery to reduce intraoperative bleeding. loading dose of 10 mg/kg for high BMI patients who are undergoing bariatric surgery

Control group of high BMI bariatrics patients will not receive TXA but will be operated by the same surgery team and homeostasis steps.
