Preop oral TXA demonstrates noninferiority to IV TXA in TKA for hemostasis .
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.
The James A. Rand Young Investigator's Award: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Oral and Intravenous Tranexamic Acid in Total Knee Arthroplasty: The Same Efficacy at Lower Cost?
J Arthroplasty. 2016 Sep;31(9 Suppl):26-3078 patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty were randomized to be administered oral or intravenous tranexamic acid (TXA). The purpose of this study was to determine if oral TXA, which costs less, was noninferior to IV TXA. Outcomes included postoperative hemoglobin drop, total blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, transfusion rate, and the incidence of thromboembolic complications. Equivalence testing for hemoglobin drop and total blood loss demonstrated noninferior efficacy of oral TXA compared to IV TXA.
