THE EFFECT OF TRANEXAMIC ACID INJECTION ON HEMOGLOBIN LEVEL, ALBUMIN LEVEL, AND PAIN ON PATIENT RECEIVING TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT
Background: The high number of knee osteoarthritis cases could lead arthroplasty more frequent. Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgery procedure is at risk of massive bleeding. Bleeding can affect albumin levels and the onset of intra-compartment pressure on the nerves. The use of tranexamic acid coul...

description | Background: The high number of knee osteoarthritis cases could lead arthroplasty more frequent. Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgery procedure is at risk of massive bleeding. Bleeding can affect albumin levels and the onset of intra-compartment pressure on the nerves. The use of tranexamic acid could be done to reduce bleeding.
Objective: Proving the effect of intravenous tranexamic acid administration on patients who will undergo TKR surgery.
Methods: The experiment was conducted experimentally using primary laboratory data obtained before and after surgery in patient which will be performed TKR operation starting from April 2017.
Result: There are 64 patients who had undergone total knee replacement surgery. The mean preoperative hemoglobin in the tranexamic acid group and without tranexamic acid was 13.06±1.46g/dl and 12.44±0.87g/dl. The mean hemoglobin after surgery was 10.29 ±1.14 g/dl and 9.16±0.97 g/dl. In the group receiving tranexamic acid, 32 (100%) reported low postoperative VAS scores, did not require blood transfusions and did not require albumin transfusion. Groups not receiving tranexamic acid, 32 (100%) moderate postoperative VAS scores, 4 people (12.5%) required the blood transfusion, and 3 (9.4%) required transfusion of albumin.
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the group given tranexamic acid had higher hemoglobin levels after surgery than the untreated group of tranexamic acid; there was no difference in albumin levels after surgery in both groups; the administration of tranexamic acid will decrease the amount of blood loss, decrease the degree of pain, and decrease the need for blood transfusions after total knee replacement surgery. |
