Idiopathic ScoliosisNCT02084342
Study of DDAVP Combined With TXA on the Blood Loss and Transfusion Need During and After Scoliosis Correction Surgery
A study testing tranexamic acid and sodium chloride injection, normal saline and desmopressin acetate injection in people with Idiopathic Scoliosis, run by Liu Weifeng.
Trial summary
Intraoperative administration of tranexamic acid (TXA,T) reduces significantly blood loss and blood transfusion requirements during spinal posterior fusion in adolescents with scoliosis. TXA acts mainly by inhibit the plasminogen activator. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Desmopressin Combined With Tranexamic Acid on the Blood Loss and Transfusion Need During and After Scoliosis Correction Surgery
Intraoperative administration of tranexamic acid (TXA,T) reduces significantly blood loss and blood transfusion requirements during spinal posterior fusion in adolescents with scoliosis. TXA acts mainly by inhibit the plasminogen activator.
Desmopressin (DDAVP ,D) can inhibit the fibrinolytic activity by inducing the release of von Willebrand factor from the endothelial cells. But at the same time, it releases tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), which may cripple its hemostatic effect.
The investigators supposed that if the investigators combine TXA with DDAVP in scoliosis correction surgery, the blood loss and the transfusion need would be reduced significantly.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
blood loss
The blood loss include the volume of blood in suction bottles, the weight of sponges and seroma volume of drainage 3 days after surgery. All fluids added to the surgical field intraoperatively were carefully quantified and deducted from the measured blood loss.
Measured: during and 3 days after the surgery
Secondary outcomes (1)
blood transfusion
The blood transfusion includes all the product needed during and in 3 days after the surgery.
Measured: during and 3 days after the surgery

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing tranexamic acid and sodium chloride injection, normal saline and desmopressin acetate injection in people with Idiopathic Scoliosis, run by Liu Weifeng.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
blood loss (time frame: during and 3 days after the surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Mar 2014.
