Brief Summary

Tranexamic acid is an effective anti fibrinolytic drug. Clinical studies have found that intravenous injection of tranexamic acid is more effective in reducing blood loss and transfusion in patients with advanced ovarian cancer, without increasing the risk of postoperative complications. Different surgeries and administration routes have an impact on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of TXA. At present, there is little data on the pharmacokinetics of intramuscular injection of TXA, and almost all of the data comes from males. For ovarian cancer patients, there are currently no reports on the pharmacokinetics of TXA through different routes of administration, such as intramuscular and intravenous administration. Therefore, the investigators chose ovarian cancer patients and administered it through different routes of intravenous and intramuscular injection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Elimination clearance rate (CL) of tranexamic acid

    Patients were enrolled and screened during preoperative anaesthesia visit. The enrolled patients were randomly divided into IV TXA injection group and intramuscular TXA injection group. All blood samples were centrifuged and preserved for later testing,Nonlinear mixed-effects pharmacokinetic modeling was performed on the compartmental population pharmacokinetic data using the Monolix 2020R1 program.

    Before administration, 15minutes after administration, 45minutes after administration, 90minutes after administration, 3hours after administration, 6hours after administration and 24hours after administration

  • Interventricular clearance rate (Q) of tranexamic acid

    Patients were enrolled and screened during preoperative anaesthesia visit. The enrolled patients were randomly divided into IV TXA injection group and intramuscular TXA injection group. All blood samples were centrifuged and preserved for later testing,Nonlinear mixed-effects pharmacokinetic modeling was performed on the compartmental population pharmacokinetic data using the Monolix 2020R1 program.

    Before administration, 15minutes after administration, 45minutes after administration, 90minutes after administration, 3hours after administration, 6hours after administration and 24hours after administration

  • Central ventricular volume (Vc) of tranexamic acid

    Patients were enrolled and screened during preoperative anaesthesia visit. The enrolled patients were randomly divided into IV TXA injection group and intramuscular TXA injection group. All blood samples were centrifuged and preserved for later testing,Nonlinear mixed-effects pharmacokinetic modeling was performed on the compartmental population pharmacokinetic data using the Monolix 2020R1 program.

    Before administration, 15minutes after administration, 45minutes after administration, 90minutes after administration, 3hours after administration, 6hours after administration and 24hours after administration

  • peripheral ventricular volume (Vp) of tranexamic acid

    Patients were enrolled and screened during preoperative anaesthesia visit. The enrolled patients were randomly divided into IV TXA injection group and intramuscular TXA injection group. All blood samples were centrifuged and preserved for later testing,Nonlinear mixed-effects pharmacokinetic modeling was performed on the compartmental population pharmacokinetic data using the Monolix 2020R1 program.

    Before administration, 15minutes after administration, 45minutes after administration, 90minutes after administration, 3hours after administration, 6hours after administration and 24hours after administration

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Intraoperative blood loss

    during operative period

  • Blood transfusion volume

    during operative period

Other Outcomes (1)

  • New postoperative thrombotic complications

    within 30 days after surgery.

Study Arms (2)

Intravenous infusion of TXA

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Slowly infuse 1g TXA at a rate of approximately 1 ml/min.

Behavioral: Tranexamic acid Intravenous Infusion

Intramuscular injection of TXA

EXPERIMENTAL

1g TXA is administered with twice intramuscular injections, and each injection takes no more than 30 seconds. The injection site is chosen as the deltoid or lateral thigh muscle.

Behavioral: TXA intramuscular injection

Interventions

A slow intravenous infusion of 1g TXA was administered at a rate of about 1ml/min.

Intravenous infusion of TXA

5ml intramuscular injections of TXA with twice, each injection time no more than 30 seconds, the injection site was selected as triangle

Intramuscular injection of TXA
