About this study
Official title: Efficacy of Prophylactic Tranexamic Acid Use After Vaginal Delivery According to Postpartum Hemorrhage Risk: Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial
In this study, our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of prophylactic tranexamic acid use after vaginal delivery in pregnant women aged 18-45 years and 34-42 weeks according to the risk of postpartum hemorrhage.
Read the detailed description
It was carried out as a double-blind prospective randomized controlled Phase 4 drug study with 480 singleton pregnant women in Bursa Yüksek İhtisas Training and Research Hospital between September 1, 2021 and February 28, 2022. The patients were divided into two groups as low risk (240 patients) and high risk (240 patients) according to their postpartum hemorrhage risks, and the patients in each group were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1: were given intravenous tranexamic acid and group 2: were given placebo. The blood loss at the 3rd and 4th stages of labor was calculated by weighing the blood collected with the help of a collecting pochette and using the estimated blood loss formula.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The loss of blood at the 3rd and 4th stages of labor
It was calculated by weighing the blood collected with the help of collecting bag and using the estimated blood loss formula.
Measured: 6 month
Secondary outcomes (1)
The success of tranexamic acid in patients grouped according to the postpartum bleeding risk scale
The success of tranexamic acid in patients grouped according to the postpartum bleeding risk scale association with atony, need for blood transfusion, need for extra uterotonics, and the gastrointestinal side effects of tranexamic acid such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea were evaluated.
Measured: 6 months
