Peroperative Tranexamic Acid as Prophylaxis of Haemorrhage in Benign Hysterectomy - a Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Tranexamic Acid and Placebo for Gynecologic Surgical Procedures and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 332 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
In Denmark, 4400 women annually undergo hysterectomy on benign background (surgical removal of the uterus). 10% of these women experience bleeding complications. The drug Tranexamic Acid (Cyklokapron) has showed significant reduction of bleeding in relation to other types of surgery. The hypothesis of this study is that Tranexamic Acid could also reduce the operative bleeding associated with benign hysterectomy. The study will be carried out as a randomized, placebo-controlled national multicenter trial
