Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the administration of tranexamic acid can reduce the necessity of blood transfusions in adult patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. . It will also inform about safety of tranexamic acid in this setting.
The main question it aims to answer is: Does tranexamic acid lower the probability of receiving at least one blood transfusion during or after surgery?
Participants will compare tranexamic acid o a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if tranexamic acid works to reduce the necessity of a blood transfusion.
