NCT02807441

Brief Summary

The investigators would like to further the current understanding of aspirin and its effects on perioperative bleeding by conducting a randomized controlled trial of spinal surgery patients receiving varying doses of aspirin or no aspirin perioperatively. The investigators hypothesize that there will be no significant difference in perioperative blood loss between the different groups.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Hemorrhage: Amount of blood loss

    Amount of blood loss from the operation will be recorded

    Intraoperative

  • Hemorrhage: Amount of blood loss

    Blood loss from drainage tube when applicable

    48 hours Postoperative

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Blood Transfusion: Amount of blood products transfused

    Intraoperative

Study Arms (3)

No aspirin

NO INTERVENTION

Patients will not be given any Acetylsalicylic acid in the perioperative period.

Low-dose aspirin

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be given low-dose Acetylsalicylic acid (81 mg) in the perioperative period.

Drug: Acetylsalicylic acid

High-dose aspirin

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be given high-dose Acetylsalicylic acid (325 mg) in the perioperative period.

Drug: Acetylsalicylic acid

Interventions

Patients will receive different doses of aspirin perioperatively to assess bleeding association.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All patients over 18 years old, who are not taking aspirin at the time of operation as part of a current cardiovascular treatment plan, who will undergo spinal surgery from 2016-2019 in the practice of Dr. Eubanks.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any patient under the age of 18 and/or is already taking anticoagulant therapy for an established cardiovascular disease at the time of surgery as part of a cardiovascular therapy.
