Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Tranexamic Acid
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo (Saline)
Other interventions - Perioperative hypotension-avoidance strategy
Other interventions - Perioperative hypertension-avoidance strategy

Active comparator: Tranexamic Acid (TXA) - Patients will receive a 1g loading dose of intravenous TXA before surgery and a 1g loading dose of intravenous TXA at the end of surgery (wound closure).

Placebo comparator: Placebo (0.9% normal saline) - Patients will receive a 1g loading dose of placebo (0.9% normal saline) before surgery and a 1g loading dose of placebo (0.9% normal saline) at the end of surgery (wound closure).

Active comparator: Hypotension-avoidance strategy - Aims to avoid hypotension before surgery (preoperative), during surgery (intraoperative) and for the first 2 days after the day of surgery (postoperative).

Placebo comparator: Perioperative hypertension-avoidance strategy - Aims to avoid hypertension before surgery (preoperative), during surgery (intraoperative) and for the first 2 days after the day of surgery (postoperative).


Treatment: Drugs: Tranexamic Acid
Within 20 minutes preceding the anticipated skin incision, patients will receive intravenous TXA at a loading dose of 1g over 10 minutes, with a second 1g bolus given at the end of surgery when closing the wound.

Treatment: Drugs: Placebo (Saline)
Within 20 minutes preceding the anticipated skin incision, patients will receive intravenous placebo (0.9% normal saline) at a loading dose of 1g over 10 minutes, with a second 1g bolus given at the end of surgery when closing the wound.

Other interventions: Perioperative hypotension-avoidance strategy
Perioperative hypotension-avoidance strategy includes:

1. Preoperative algorithm that only continues some antihypertensive medications in a stepwise manner for systolic BP =130 mm Hg before surgery,
2. Intraoperative blood pressure targeting a mean arterial pressure (MAP) =80 mm Hg
3. Postoperative algorithm that only continues some antihypertensive medications in a stepwise manner for systolic BP =130 mm Hg during the first 48 hours after surgery.

Other interventions: Perioperative hypertension-avoidance strategy
Perioperative hypertension-avoidance strategy (i.e., routine care) continues all antihypertensive drugs before and after surgery and an intraoperative BP strategy targeting a MAP =60 mm Hg.
