This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Tranexamic Acid Administration in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Intravenous Combined with Topical Versus Single-Dose Intravenous Administration
J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2016 Jun 15;98(12):983-91150 patients scheduled for primary unilateral total hip arthroplasty were randomized to one of three groups: a combined intravenous (IV) and topical tranexamic acid (TXA) protocol, IV TXA alone with topical placebo administration, or intravenous and topical placebo administration. The purpose of this study was to determine if the combined administration protocol demonstrated significantly greater efficacy in reducing blood loss and transfusion compared to IV TXA alone and placebo. The results of this study demonstrated that intraoperative blood loss, total blood loss, and transfusion rate were significantly lower with the combined IV and topical TXA protocol compared to both the IV TXA alone protocol and placebo group. There were no significant differences between the three groups in the incidence of deep vien thrombosis.
