Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Control group (Placebo) versus Tranexamic acid  Control group -No drug is administered Group 1 - Tranexamic acid is administered at a decided dose as per protocol which is 15 mg/kg Group 2 - Tranexamic acid at 15 mg/kg before skin incision and a second dose 6 hours after the first dose at a dose of 15 mg/kg

Brief Summary  

This is a randomized controlled blinded trial comparing the efficacy and safety of single dose IV tranexamic acid in one arm comprising of 63 subjects in each arm) with that of IV plus single postoperative IV dose of tranexamic acid with regards to drop in hematocrit after 24 hours, requirement of blood transfusion after 24 hours as the primary outcome in our institution over a period of one year. The secondary outcomes of the study will include a possible decrease in inflammatory markers like IL 6 & D-Dimer after 12 hours, the length of hospital stay and complications if any in the hospital.
