Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining the effect of tranexamic acid injection with oxytocin versus oxytocin alone before elective cesarean section in preventing intraoperative and postoperative hemorrhage
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized, phase 2 per 200 patients. Excel software rand function was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
This study will be performed on patients who are candidates for elective cesarean section referred to Kamali Hospital in Karaj. By random computer numbers in sealed envelopes the anesthesia technician opens the envelope but the surgeon, patient, and data analyst will not be aware of the classification.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Singleton pregnancy, Age over 18 years, Gestational age over 34 weeks, candidate for elective cesarean section, No anemia, No history of underlying disease, No history of bleeding disorders, No risk factor for post partum hemorrhage, No allergy to Tranexamic acid
Intervention groups
In the intervention group, 20 minutes before the operation and incision of the skin, 1 gram of tranexamic acid diluted in 20 cc of 5% extrusion is injected intravenously. In the control group, placebo is used in 20 cc of 5% dextrose. Both groups after the umbilical cord clamp will receive 30 units of oxytocin in 500 cc of Ringer serum intravenously.
Main outcome variables
Reduce post partum hemorrhage and the need for blood transfusions after cesarean section by preoperative injection of tranexamic acid
