Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of intra-articular injection of tranexamic acid with different drainage tube clamping time on blood loss and complications after total knee arthroplasty. Methods A total of 93 patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty from Octorber 2016 to February 2017 in a Class 3 Grade A hospital in Beijing were selected by continuous sampling method. All the research subjects were divided according to the drainage tube clamping time into three groups: clamping 2 h group (n=33), 4 h group (n=29) and 6 h group (n=31). The 24 h postoperative wound drainage, hemoglobin decrease, knee girth, VAS and temperature postoperatively were observed. Results There were significant differences in the wound drainage among the three groups (P<0.05). The knee girth and VAS of the 6 h group were higher than those of the 2 h and 4 h group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no significant differences among the three groups in hemoglobin decrease and temperature (P>0.05). Conclusions Clamping drainage tube for 4 h after total knee arthroplasty can effectively reduce wound drainage, and will not increase the knee hematoma, pain and postoperative fever.
