  • The safety and efficacy of sequential use of tranexamic acid in perioperative period of half hip replacement for femoral neck fracture in the elderly

    ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and efficacy of sequential use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in the perioperative period of half hip replacement for femoral neck fracture in the elderly.MethodsPatients who underwent hemiarthroplasty due to femoral neck fracture in Meishan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from January 2016 to October 2018 were retrospectively included. According to the use of TXA during the perioperative period, the patients were divided into group A (no use of TXA), group B (TXA use on the day of surgery), and group C (sequential therapy). The perioperative blood loss, blood transfusion rate and incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the 3 groups were recorded and counted.ResultsA total of 113 patients were included, and 99 patients were finally included (31 in group A, 36 in group B, and 32 in group C). There were no statistically significant difference in age, sex, body mass index, hemoglobin (Hb) at admission, hematocrit at admission, blood volume, or blood transfusion among the three groups. The differences in total blood loss (F=43.613, P<0.001), preoperative blood loss (F=4.746, P=0.011), preoperative Hb (F=6.220, P=0.003), maximum Hb change (F=18.913, P<0.001), and postoperative length of hospital stay (F=43.511, P<0.001) among the three groups were statistically significant. There was no DVT of the lower extremities or pulmonary embolism found in the three groups. The differences in preoperative blood loss and preoperative Hb were not statistically significant between group A and group B. The difference in postoperative length of hospital stay was not statistically significant between group B and group C. The differences in other indexes between all the pairs of the three groups were statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionUsing TXA early after femoral neck fracture and sequentially to the day of surgery can reduce perioperative blood loss, including hidden blood loss before surgery and blood loss during and after the operation, which is beneficial to patients’ postoperative recovery without increasing the risk of DVT.
