Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The patients receiving total knee arthroplasty are high in average age, and often accompanied with hypertension, diabetes and other basic diseases. Due to the poor physical conditions of the patients,
perioperative hemorrhage becomes the important factor that affecting the safety of replacement.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze perioperative hidden hemorrhage of primary total knee arthroplasty, and to explore the method of evaluating perioperative blood loss by osteoarthritis severity before total knee arthroplasty.
METHODS:A retrospective analysis of 126 knee osteoarthritis patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty was conducted. Al the patients were divided into two groups according to Kel gren and Lawrecne imaging classification:stage Ⅲ group and stage Ⅳ group. The hidden hemorrhage of the patients in two groups was calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The average total blood loss of the patients was 1 560 mL, included hidden hemorrhage 865 mL (55%). The mean blood loss of stage Ⅲ group was 1 290 mL with the mean hidden
hemorrhage of 684 mL (53%). The mean blood loss of stage Ⅳ group was 1 644 mL with the mean hidden
hemorrhage of 921 mL (56%). Statistical analysis showed there were significant differences of total blood loss and hidden hemorrhage between two groups (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the percentage of
hidden hemorrhage. The results indicate that higher grade of osteoarthritis imaging classification, the more of total blood loss and hidden hemorrhage, while the change of the percentage of hidden hemorrhage is not significant. Preoperative evaluation of patients’ blood loss by osteoarthritis severity has great significance for blood
management and surgical safety of patients.
