Background: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of intravenous administration of tranexamic acid for reducing blood loss in total knee arthroplasty at different dosage time.
Methods: From February 2013 to December 2015, a total of 180 patients (47 in male and 133 in female) who were planned to undergo total knee arthroplasty in our trauma center were recorded. Based on dosage time of tranexamic acid administration, participants were divided into groups A, B, C, and D randomly.
Objectives: This paper aimed to compare the outcome of suprapatellar and infrapatellar approaches for the tibia intramedullary nailing.
Methods: From February 2010 to August 2013, a total of 162 skeletally mature participants with tibia shaft fractures were identified and divided into suprapatellar approach group (SPAG) and infrapatellar approach group (IPAG) randomly. Fluoroscopy time, length of hospital stay, operative time, blood loss and complications were recorded.
