Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   Primary purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of high-dose (50mg/kg body wt. followed with 5mg/kg/hr for 5 hours) versus standard-dose(10mg/kg body wt. followed with 1mg/kg/hr for 5 hours) Tranexamic Acid in reducing blood loss during single and double-level open spine.Also to assess secondary outcomes like blood transfusion rates, surgical complications, length of hospital stay, and cost-effectiveness.
Research hypothesis is High dose use of Tranaxamic acid is better than the standard dose used in single and double    level spine surgeries.
