Summary

Enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery imposes a significant reduction in length of hospital stay. However beneficial for the overall recovery it reduces the hospital observation time. after a laparoscopic surgery during which one of the longest resection line in surgery or anastomosis are created. Therefore, discovering possible safe and effective ways of pharmacologically reducing surgical blood loss and reducing the risk of postoperative bleeding would be an invaluable addition to the protocol. The systemic use of tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to be effective in many types of surgery, reducing the incidence of post-operative bleeding and thereby reducing the rate of reoperation.

Conditions

  • Hemorrhage, Surgical
  • Bariatric Surgery
  • Tranexamic Acid

Interventions

DRUG

Administration of 1g tranexamic acid intravenous bolus, after anesthesia was introduced

The systemic use of tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to be effective in many types of surgery, reducing the incidence of post-operative bleeding and thereby reducing the rate of reoperation. To evaluate if TXA systemic administration reduces postoperative blood loss in bariatric surgeries (sleeve gastrectomy operation)
