Clinical Trial Summary

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may be associated with significant blood loss, and transfusion carries substantial risk of immunologic reaction and disease transmission. Several methods reportedly reduce postoperative blood loss and avoid homologous blood transfusion with traditional TKA approaches. Drain clamping was one of the widely used method and tranexamic acid administration was the recently adjuvant method to reduce blood loss in TKA. However, there were several regimens in either drain clamping or tranexamic acid administration reported in previous studies. Our objective was to compare the efficacy of our drain clamping protocol and/or tranexamic acid regimen for reducing blood loss and transfusion in TKA.
