Abstract Introduction: This study was designed to compare the clinical results of additional administration of topical tranexamic acid (TXA) with intravenous TXA (IV-TXA) and to determine its effect in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) without drainage using propensity score matching analysis.Methods: A total of 248 patients (248 hips) underwent primary THA from March 2016 to June 2018. Patients who received topical TXA and IV-TXA were included in the combined group (46 patients), and patients who received IV-TXA were included in the IV only group (202 patients). After propensity score matching, both groups consisted of 44 patients (88 patients in total). We compared the results of total blood loss (TBL), haemoglobin (Hb) level, Hb drop, and the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Results: In the combined group, the TBL was 280.4 ± 64.2 mL, which was significantly lower than that in the IV only group (335.3 ± 75.3 mL; p < 0.001). From the preoperative period to 1-week postoperatively, Hb levels were not significantly different between the two groups. There was significantly more Hb drop in the IV only Group from immediate postoperative to postoperative day 3 (POD 3). In both groups, no patient presented with postoperative symptomatic DVT or PE. Conclusion: In patients undergoing primary THA without drainage, combined use of IV-TXA and topical TXA can significantly decrease blood loss without influencing postoperative complications.

Introduction Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown to be effective in reducing post-operative blood loss after hip replacement surgery. Clinicians can be reluctant to administer intravenous (IV) TXA to high risk patients and intra-articular (IA) administration has been proposed as an alternative mode of delivery. This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of IV versus IA administration of TXA.   Methods This prospective, double blinded, randomised non-inferiority trial, compared 69 patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) who received either 3 doses of 15mg/kg of IV TXA or 3 g of IA TXA after capsular closure. The primary outcomes were change in Hb and the rate of blood transfusion. The secondary outcome was the rate of VTE.   Results The mean haemoglobin level change from pre-operative to day 1 post-operative for the IV group was 26.7g/L and for IA group was 27.3g/L. No statistically significant difference was detected between the two groups (p=0.82). No patients required a transfusion or developed a VTE.   Conclusions IA administration of TXA can be equally effective as IV in the reduction of blood loss and the prevention of post-operative anaemia in primary THA.

Introduction: Endoprosthetic replacement of the large joints is accompanied by major bleeding. During the last few years several authors reported the perioperative administration of tranexamic acid and its beneficial effect on reducing the blood loss. Objectives: In the present study, the author studied the effect of intravenously administered tranexamic acid in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty in order to examine whether this treatment could reduce postoperative blood loss, the amount of transfused packed red cells, and the cost of the blood saving and/or transfusion. Methods: The author compared retrospectively the data of 104 patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty between April, 2010 and December, 2011. 54 patients were administered tranexamic acid (Group 1) and 50 patients were treated without tranexamic acid (Group 2). The amount of postoperative bleeding, haemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell count, and the number of units of the transfused packed red cells were recorded. Cost effectiveness of treatment with tranexamic acid was calculated. Results: Postoperative blood loss in Group 1 was 732 ml (210–1280 ml), and in Group 2 1092 ml (420–2640 ml). Ten of the 54 patients in Group 1 had to be transfused, and the all-over need was 20 units of packed red cells. 49 of the 50 patients in Group 2 received 98 units of allogenic blood. Thromboembolic complication was not observed in connection with the use of tranexamic acid. The reduction of blood loss with the application of tranexamic acid and the transfused packed red cells cost in average 5,180 HUF per patient in Group 1 and 15,850 HUF in Group 2. Conclusions: Intravenous administration of tranexamic acid reduces effectively the transfusion rate and the blood loss in the postoperative period in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty. More than 1.5 million HUF and 240 units of packed red cells could be yearly saved with the introduction of this simple, safe and cheap method of drug administered blood conservation. Orv. Hetil., 2012, 153, 1607–1612.
