Clinical Trial Summary

In this randomized double blind placebo controlled study of tranexamic acid during minor spinal surgery, mean postoperative blood loss in the patients who received TXA was statistically significantly lower compared to placebo.


Clinical Trial Description

Study Design: Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study.

Objective: To investigate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) compared to placebo in low-risk adult patients undergoing elective minor lumbar spine surgery on operative time, estimated blood loss and complications.

Summary of Background Data: Studies have shown that TXA reduces blood loss during major spine surgery. There are no studies on the effect of TXA in minor lumbar spine surgery on operative time, intraoperative and postoperative blood loss and complications.

Methods: We enrolled patients with ASA grades 1 to 2, scheduled to undergo lumbar decompressive surgery at Middelfart Hospital. Patients with thromboembolic disease, coagulopathy, hypersensitivity to TXA or history of convulsion were excluded. Patients were randomized, in blocks of 10, to two groups: TXA or placebo. Anticoagulation therapy was discontinued 2-7 days preoperatively. Prior to the incision, patients received either a bolus of TXA (10mg/kg), or an equivalent volume of saline solution (placebo). ;
