Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Tranexamic Acid Arm
Participants in the experimental arm will receive tranexamic acid (TXA) during surgery for CSDH evacuation with a single 1000mg intraoperative intravenous (IV) dose. Participants with a body weight 60-100kg will also receive a post-operative dose regimen of 500 mg TXA orally, 3 times a day (TID). Weight deviations from this body weight range will be considered with a dose adjustment of 1000mg TXA two times a day (BID) for a body weight >100 kg, and 500 mg TXA BID for body weight <60kg. |
Tranexamic Acid 500mg oral tablets
|
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Control Arm
Participants in the control arm will placebo according to the same administration regimen.
|
The placebo will consist of an identical capsule to over-encapsulated tranexamic acid oral tablet entirely filled with microcrystalline cellulose, and sealed.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Chronic subdural hematoma volume change
Time Frame: At 4-8 weeks
|
Change in hematoma volume in mL according to CT-scan-based volume measurements comparing hematoma on CT scan performed at 4-8 weeks to hematoma on immediate post-operative CT scan.
|
At 4-8 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Chronic subdural hematoma volume change
Time Frame: At 12 weeks
|
Change in hematoma volume in mL according to CT-scan-based volume measurements comparing hematoma on CT scan performed at 4-8 weeks to hematoma on immediate post-operative CT scan.
|
At 12 weeks
|
Rate of adverse events (AEs)
Time Frame: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Adverse events investigated include:
Serious adverse events include:
|
At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36)
Time Frame: At 4, 8, 12 weeks
|
Questionnaire assessing patient quality of life outcome profile
|
At 4, 8, 12 weeks
|
National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)
Time Frame: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Change in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (neurological outcome) at 4-8 weeks and 8-12 weeks, compared to the baseline visit score Minimum scale score: 0; Maximum scale score: 42. Higher score means worse neurological impairment. |
At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Modified Rankin Scale (mRS)
Time Frame: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Change in Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score (neurological outcome) at 4-8 weeks and 8-12 weeks, compared to the baseline visit score Minimum scale score: 0 (no symptoms); Maximum scale score: 6 (death). Higher score means worse neurological outcome. |
At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Markwalder's grading scale (MGS)
Time Frame: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Change in Markwalder's grading scale (MGS) score (neurological outcome) at 4-8 weeks and 8-12 weeks, compared to the baseline visit score Minimum scale score: 0 (normal); Maximum scale score: 4. Higher score means worse neurological outcome. |
At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Rate of re-operation
Time Frame: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Rate of re-operation during study course due to hematoma enlargement or other significant cause
|
At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Time to reoperation
Time Frame: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
|
Time to reoperation during study course due to hematoma enlargement or other significant cause
|
At 4, 8, and 12 weeks
