Clinical Trial Summary

Tourniquet use during total knee replacement (TKR) improves visibility, significantly decreases intra-operative blood loss and reduce operative time. However, tourniquet use also has a negative effect on postoperative pain, postoperative range of motion(ROM), wound complication, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), thigh muscle strength, and functional recovery after TKR. Therefore, the investigators conducted a three-arm prospective, randomized, controlled trial study to compare the efficacy of different tourniquet pressure used between systolic blood pressure + 75 mmHg, systolic blood pressure + 100 mmHg, and systolic blood pressure + 150 mmHg.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients scheduled for unilateral primary TKA; 150 patients were randomly assigned to receive tourniquet pressure used of systolic blood pressure + 75 mmHg, systolic blood pressure + 100 mmHg, and systolic blood pressure + 150 mmHg.

All patients had spinal anesthesia, the same operative procedure, and postoperative pain protocol. A visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain were recorded 24, 48 hours, and 2 weeks postoperatively. Quality of bloodless visual field and calculated blood loss were evaluated perioperatively. Postoperative ROM, wound complication, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE) were recorded at 2, 6, and 12 weeks. Furthermore, Knee Society Score (KSS) also recorded at 6 weeks, 3 and 6 months. The reviewers were blinded to the treatment group. ;
