Completed
- Conditions
- Postoperative Hemorrhage
- Registration Number
- NCT02963623
- Lead Sponsor
- Konkuk University Medical Center
- Brief Summary
Retrospective study to evaluate if FIBTEM predicts the amount of postoperative bleeding in total knee replacement patients.
- Detailed Description
This retrospective study evaluate patients who underwent total knee replacement arthroplasty. Laboratory coagulation parameters, including FIBTEM, before anesthesia induction and after admission to the post-anesthetic care unit and decrement of postoperative haemoglobin and amount of transfusion were reviewed.
A correlation coefficient of ρ = 0.4 was calculated from a pilot study. We need at least 44 subjects with an α value of 0.05 and a power of 0.8.
