Clinical Trial Summary

In this study, the investigators will investigate the effectiveness of an intravenous tranexamic acid plus triple tourniquets compared with triple tourniquets alone for the reduction of blood loss at the time of myomectomy


Clinical Trial Description

An RCT investigated the efficacy of intravenous tranexamic acid (TA) during abdominal myomectomy. The study was unable to demonstrate any significant impact on blood loss, duration of surgery or need for blood transfusionHemostatic tourniquets to reduce intra‐operative bleeding have long been available, but data on their efficacy from controlled trials are lacking. The investigators set out to evaluate the use of triple tourniquets plus tranexamic acid in controlled conditions and for the first time to investigate the hypothesis that adding tranexamic acid to tourniquet around the uterine artery reduces postoperative bleeding from the uterine incisions, a well-recognized sequel to surgery ;
