Tranexamic acid reduces blood cost in long-segment spinal fusion surgery: A randomized controlled study protocol.
Long-segment spinal fusion surgery was associated with substantial perioperative blood loss which may increase hospitalization expenses and mortality rates. Substantial studies have reported that tranexamic acid (TXA) could reduce blood products and cost after joint arthroplasty surgery. However, there still exists controversy regarding the efficacy of TXA in long-segment spinal fusion surgery. We performed this protocol to design a randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of TXA in decreasing transfusion rate of allogeneic blood products and transfusion cost in degenerative lumbar scoliosis patients. ⋯ We hypothesized that TXA was effective and safe in reducing blood transfusion and cost in long-segment spinal fusion surgery.
