Sponsor's own description

Tranexamic (TXA)acid is an inexpensive, antifibrinolytic drug long used to control bleeding due to surgery, menorrhagia, or trauma. Additionally, tranexamic acid has been shown to reduce bleeding during cesarean delivery as well as the need for additional uterotonic agents, albeit to a minimal degree. However, previous studies have been performed only in women with a standard risk for postpartum hemorrhage( PPH) and have not focused on assessing the effects of tranexamic acid in high-risk women. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of IV versus topical application of tranexamic acid in reducing blood loss during and after elective C.S. The Research Question Is topical application of Tranexamic acid effective in reducing blood loss during and after an elective Caesarean section? The Research Hypothesis the TXA could be able to reduce blood loss during and after elective Caesarean section. The null hypothesis will, therefore, state that: There will be no difference between topical and IV TXA and placebo in reducing blood loss during and after elective Caesarean section.
