简要总结
Hypotheses: Primary - A weighted dose of 20 mg/kg of tranexamic acid will be more efficacious than a single uniform dose of 1 gram in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) cases. This includes having a greater impact on decreasing blood loss without increasing the occurrence of adverse thromboembolic events in patients undergoing primary, elective total knee arthroplasty.
Secondary - TA will decrease blood loss more effectively in women than in men undergoing this procedure.
详细描述
Overall Study Design
Study design and control methods:
This study is designed as a prospective, randomized, double-blinded controlled clinical trial to compare the effect of a single uniform 1 g dose of TA and a single weighted 20 mg/kg dose of tranexamic acid (TA).
Treatment group:
The subjects will be randomly assigned to the uniform dose group or weighted dose group at the time of the surgery via the opening of a randomly selected closed envelope. The patient and the independent reviewer will be blinded as to the dose of TA utilized during the surgery. This information will be linked to a confidential database for later review by the principal investigator.

研究组 & 干预措施
Females receiving a uniform dose of TA
Women receiving a single dose of 1 gram of TA--includes all women that will get 1 gram dose of the TA during surgery. Postop outcomes wil be measured for comparison, including hemoglobin, hematocrits and blood loss.
干预措施: Females receiving a uniform dose of TA (Drug)
Weighted dose of TA in female patients
Female patients receiving a weighted dose of TA. Will include all women that will get a weighted dose of the TA during surgery. Postop outcomes wil be measured for comparison, including hemoglobin, hematocrits and blood loss.
干预措施: Females Tranexamic Acid weighted dose (Drug)
Tranexamic acid weighted dose male
Male patients randomized to the weighted dose of TA. Postop outcomes wil be measured for comparison, including hemoglobin, hematocrits and blood loss.
干预措施: Males Weighted Dose TA (Drug)
Uniform single dose TA male patient
Male patients receiving a single dose (1gram) of TA during TKA. Includes all men that will get 1 gram dose of the TA during surgery. Postop outcomes wil be measured for comparison Postop outcomes wil be measured for comparison, including hemoglobin, hematocrits and blood loss. Patients will be randomized into one of these two groups.
干预措施: Tranexamic Acid standard dose (Drug)
