Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Recently, there has been interest in applying tranexamic acid topically before the closure of surgical wounds in total hip replacement. It has the advantages of ease of application, maximum concentration at the site of bleeding, minimising its systematic absorption and, potentially , decline the risks for systematic side-effects 。

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Objectives:To assess the efficacy and safety between the two different applying routes.

Patients in this project are randomly divided into three groups , one group is a blank group and the rest two groups receive either the topical or the intravenous form of tranexamic acid during unilateral THA(total hip arthroplasty).The total blood loss(TBL) will be calculated as the primary outcome for efficacy while the events of Deep Vein Thrombosis、Pulmonary Embolism、Acute Myocardial Infarction 、 Acute Kidney Infarction and Cerebral Infarction will be recorded to assess the safety of the tranexamic acid during a six-week follow-up for each patient.

All surgery are under general anesthesia, through direct lateral approach with cementless prosthesis. For all patients, the drain tube is clamped and closed completely for 2 hours; then the clamp is fully opened.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group1

60 Milliliters(ml)Normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) will be applied by soaking the hip cavity for at least 3 minutes before wound closure and then sucked away.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

0.9% sodium chloride

Intervention Type DRUG

The normal saline solution will be prepared under sterile conditions. In the operation room the sterile bag containing the solution will be given to the scrub nurse. The contents (60 ml) will be emptied in a sterile surgical bowl and the nurse will ask the surgeon to apply the solution before wound closure.The dosage and applying route can also be looked up in doctor's order sheet.

Group2

two-dose intravenous tranexamic acid will be applied as follow: 10mg/kg of Tranexamic Acid in 100 Milliliters(ml) normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride),the first dose 15' prior to skin incision and the second dose at 180' after the first dosage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

tranexamic acid

Intervention Type DRUG

The Tranexamic Acid solution will be prepared under sterile conditions. In the operation room the sterile bag containing the solution will be given to the scrub nurse. The contents (60 ml) will be emptied in a sterile surgical bowl and the nurse will ask the surgeon to apply the solution before wound closure.The dosage and applying route can also be looked up in doctor's order sheet.

Group 3

3g Tranexamic Acid diluted to 60 Milliliters(ml) with normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) will be applied by soaking the hip cavity for at least 3 minutes before wound closure and then sucked away.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

tranexamic acid

Intervention Type DRUG

The Tranexamic Acid solution will be prepared under sterile conditions. In the operation room the sterile bag containing the solution will be given to the circuit nurse and the circuit nurse will ask the anesthetist to apply the solution intravenously before tourniquet deflation. The dosage and applying route can also be looked up in doctor's order sheet.

60 Milliliters(ml) by irrigation for 3 minutes before wound closure.
