About
The aim of this clinical study conducted in accordance with the information in the literature is to compare the effects of administering tranexamic acid during orthognathic surgery, at different doses. Specifically, investigators aim to compare the effects of administering 1 ampoule IV (approximately 3 mg/kg) and 2 ampoules IV (approximately 6 mg/kg), and evaluate their impact on intraoperative bleeding (ml), surgical duration (min), postoperative swelling, and intraoperative surgical field evaluation (Fromme Scale), by comparing them with control group (applying no drug administration) patient data.

In Study Group 2, patients also received local anesthesia before bimaxillary osteotomy, followed by intravenous administration of 250 mg / 2.5 mL tranexamic acid for le fort 1 and, a second dose of 250 mg / 2.5 mL tranexamic acid was administered for beginning of the sagittal split osteotomy.
