Evaluation of the Effect of SURGICEL® Powder in TKA

Summary

The study subjects are patients in our hospital's orthopedics department undergoing unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to primary osteoarthritis. Through a prospective, parallel randomized controlled study, 112 participants will be divided into two groups: the SURGICEL® Powder group and the non-use group. The study will compare the total perioperative blood loss , intraoperative blood loss, transfusion rate and volume, postoperative hemoglobin decline, hematocrit decline, limb swelling rate , postoperative limb pain , and range of motion. Statistical analysis will be performed on the data to observe the hemostatic effects of SURGICEL® Powder, providing recommendations for the clinical use of SURGICEL® Powder.
