Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Orthognathic Surgery; Edema; Tranexamic Acid; Bleeding
• Interventions: Drug: Tranexamic acid injection; Drug: Saline

• Registration Number: NCT06301204
• Lead Sponsor: Bezmialem Vakif University

Brief Summary

The aim of this clinical study conducted in accordance with the information in the literature is to compare the effects of administering tranexamic acid during orthognathic surgery, at different doses. Specifically, investigators aim to compare the effects of administering 1 ampoule IV (approximately 3 mg/kg) and 2 ampoules IV (approximately 6 mg/kg), and evaluate their impact on intraoperative bleeding (ml), surgical duration (min), postoperative swelling, and intraoperative surgical field evaluation (Fromme Scale), by comparing them with control group (applying no drug administration) patient data.

Detailed Description

This prospective double blind clinical study was approved by the Bezmialem Vakif University Clinical Research Ethics Committee (2022-E.6706). All patients were provided detailed explanations of the surgical procedure and potential adverse events, underwent preoperative anesthesia assessments, and provided informed consent. A total of 60 patients were included in the study and were randomly assigned to three groups: Study Group 1 (N=20), Study Group 2 (N=20), and Control Group (N=20). In Study Group 1, patients received local anesthesia prior to bimaxillary osteotomy, followed by intravenous administration of 250 mg / 2.5 mL tranexamic acid before starting with the incision. In Study Group 2, patients also received local anesthesia before bimaxillary osteotomy, followed by intravenous administration of 250 mg / 2.5 mL tranexamic acid for le fort 1 and, a second dose of 250 mg / 2.5 mL tranexamic acid was administered for beginning of the sagittal split osteotomy. The Control Group, Group 3, did not receive any medication before or after surgery. All patients underwent bimaxillary surgery using the same surgical technique and same surgical team.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
group 2 (intravenous administration of 500 mg tranexamic acid)	Tranexamic acid injection	group 2 (TRANEXEL 250 mg/5 mL) patients administered 500 mg tnx acid during the whole surgery.
control group	Saline	control group patient give no drug administration during bimaxillary orthognathic surgery.
group 1(intravenous administration of 250 mg tranexamic acid)	Tranexamic acid injection	group 1 (TRANEXEL 250 mg/5 mL) patients administered 250 mg tnx acid during the whole bimaxillary orthognathic surgery

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
intraoperative bleeding during the surgery (ml)	during the operation time (hour)	the primary outcome is this study is assessment of the intraoperative bleeding: Intraoperative bleeding will be calculated by subtracting the total amount of iv fluid and the amount of irrigation solutions used during surgery from the total amount of aspirate volume.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
intraoperative surgical site evaluation (Fromme Scale)	during the surgical time (hour)	the second secondary outcome is surgical site evaluation during the surgery. Surgeon evaluate the surgical site according to Fromme Scale per every one hour.; 0 = No bleeding, virtually bloodless field; 1. = Bleeding so mild it is not even a surgical nuisance; 2. = Moderate bleeding, a nuisance but without interference with accurate dissection; 3. = Moderate bleeding that moderately compromises surgical dissection; 4. = Heavy but controllable that significantly interferes with dissection; 5. = Massive uncontrollable bleeding
Hemoglobin (Hgb) and Hematocrit (Hct) values alteration preoperative and postoperative 2. day	during the preoperative and post operative 2. day	Hemoglobin (Hgb) and Hematocrit (Hct) values were recorded preoperatively and second postoperative day.
postoperative edema calculation for the first 1-3 and 7 day (cm)	post operative 1-3-7 days	the first secondary outcome of this study is post operative edema: Prior to anesthesia induction, Tragus (Tra) and Gonion (Go) points were marked with methylene blue, and distances including Lateral Canthus - Gonion, Tragus-Commissure, and interincisal distances were measured with a paper ruler and recorded as preoperative measurements.Measurements of Lateral Canthus - Gonion, Tragus-Commissure, and Interincisal distances were repeated on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7 for evaluating postoperative edema.
