Sci Rep 2024; 14:10997. [PMID: 38744855 PMCID: PMC11093990 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-60440-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Intravenous application of tranexamic acid (TXA) in posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) can effectively reduce blood loss without affecting coagulation function. However, it has not been reported whether preoperative use of anticoagulants may affect the efficacy of TXA in PLIF. The purpose of this study is to observe the effect of preoperative use of anticoagulants on coagulation indicators and blood loss after PLIF receiving intravenous unit dose TXA. A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 53 patients with PLIF between 2020.11 and 2022.9, who received intravenous application of a unit dose of TXA (1 g/100 mL) 15 min before the skin incision after general anesthesia. Those who used anticoagulants within one week before surgery were recorded as the observation group, while those who did not use anticoagulants were recorded as the control group. The main observation indicators include surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, blood transfusion, and red blood cell (RBC), hemoglobin (HB), and hematocrit (HCT) measured on the 1st, 4th, 7th, and last-test postoperative days. Secondary observation indicators included postoperative incision healing, deep vein thrombosis of lower limbs, postoperative hospital stay, and activated partial thrombin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (FIB), and platelets (PLT) on the 1st and 4th days after surgery. The operation was successfully completed in both groups, the incision healed well after operation, and no lower limb deep vein thrombosis occurred. There was no significant difference in surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, and blood transfusion between the two groups (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the RBC, HB, and HCT measured on the 1st, 4th, 7th, and last-test postoperative days between the two groups (p > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in APTT, PT, TT, FIB and PLT between the two groups on the 1st and 4th postoperative days (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay between the two groups (p > 0.05). The use of anticoagulants within one week before surgery does not affect the hemostatic effect of intravenous unit dose TXA in PLIF.

Clinical application of a modified predeposit autologous red blood cell apheresis in multistage spinal fusion: a single-center retrospective study. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1149093. [PMID: 37256088 PMCID: PMC10225601 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1149093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of predeposit autologous RBC apheresis (PARA) in patients undergoing multilevel spinal fusion surgery. Methods A total of 112 patients from January 2020 to June 2022 were divided into two groups according to PARA: the PARA group (n = 51) and the control group (n = 61). The baseline characteristics of the patients, outcomes, transfusion cost, hospitalization cost, length of stay, complications, and changes in hemoglobin and hematocrit levels between the two groups were compared. Results The baseline characteristics were similar in both groups. No significant differences were found in functional outcomes, including VAS score (p = 0.159), ODI score (p = 0.214), JOA score (p = 0.752), and SF-36 score (p = 0.188) between the PARA and control groups. The amount and rate of intraoperative and perioperative allogeneic RBC transfusion were significantly higher in the control group than in the PARA group (p < 0.001). The postoperative (9.04 ± 3.21 vs. 11.05 ± 3.84, p = 0.004) and total length of stay (15.78 ± 3.79 vs. 17.36 ± 4.08, p = 0.038) in the PARA group were significantly lower than those in the control group, respectively. Despite no difference in hospitalization cost (p = 0.737), the total blood transfusion cost in the PARA group was significantly lower, compared with the control group (p < 0.001). For safety evaluation, there were no significant differences in Hb and Hct levels between the two groups at admission, on postoperative day 1, and postoperative day 3, respectively (p > 0.05). Moreover, the number of postoperative infections in the PARA group was significantly lower than that in the control group (p = 0.038). Conclusion PARA was a novel, safe, and highly efficient technique for mass autologous blood preparation in a quite short preparation time. This method could significantly reduce the amount of allogeneic blood transfusion and length of stay, which could provide a theoretical basis for following clinical practice about the technique.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Significant blood loss is still one of the most frequent issues in spinal surgery. There were different hemostatic methods to prevent blood loss during spinal surgery. However, the optimal hemostatic therapy for spinal surgery is controversial. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of different hemostatic therapies in spinal surgery. METHODS Two independent reviewers conducted electronic literature searches in 3 electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane library database) as well as a manual search to identify eligible clinical studies from inception to Nov 2022. Studies that including different hemostatic therapy (tranexamic acid [TXA], epsilon-acetyl aminocaproic acid [EACA], and aprotinin [AP]) for spinal surgery were included. The Bayesian network meta-analysis was performed with a random effects model. The surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) analysis was performed to determine the ranking order. All analyses were performed by R software and Stata software. P value less than .05 was identified as statistically significant. RESULTS Finally, a total of 34 randomized controlled trials met the inclusion criteria and finally included in this network meta-analysis. The SUCRA shows that TXA ranked first (SUCRA, 88.4%), AP ranked second (SUCRA, 71.6%), EACA ranked third (SUCRA, 39.9%), and placebo ranked the last (SUCRA, 0.3%) as for total blood loss. The SUCRA shows that TXA ranked first (SUCRA, 97.7%), AP ranked second (SUCRA, 55.8%), EACA ranked third (SUCRA, 46.2%), and placebo ranked the last (SUCRA, 0.2%) for need for transfusion. CONCLUSIONS TXA appears optimal in the reduction of perioperative bleeding and blood transfusion during spinal surgery. However, considering the limitations in this study, more large-scale, well-designed randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Background Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been used in posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and reduces blood loss. However, it has not been reported whether it will continue to affect postoperative red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (HB), hematocrit (HCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). The purpose of this study was to observed the above indicators at different time after PLIF with unit dose intravenous (iv) TXA. Methods The data of 44 patients treated by single-segment PLIF from 2020.11 to 2022.3 were retrospectively analyzed. Observation group was given a unit dose of ivTXA (1 g/100 mL) 15 min before skin incision after general anesthesia. Patients without TXA were recorded as control group. Main observation indicators include RBC, HB, HCT, CRP and ESR on the 1st, 4th, 7th and last tested day after surgery. Secondary observation indicators include postoperative activated partial thrombin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), and fibrinogen (FIB); and operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, incision healing, postoperative deep vein thrombosis and postoperative hospital stay. Results The operation was successfully completed without related complications. At term of main observation indicators, RBC, HB and HCT remained relatively stable, while CRP and ESR fluctuated to some extent after PLIF. The RBC, HB and HCT in the observation group were higher than those in the control group with statistically significant (p < 0.05). Except the CRP of 7th postoperative day of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (p < 0.05), there was no difference in other CRP and ESR between the two groups (p > 0.05). At term of secondary observation indicators, the intraoperative blood loss and postoperative drainage volume of the observation group were lower than those of the control group with statistically significant (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative APTT, PT, TT, FIB, and operation time and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion The application of unit dose of ivTXA in PLIF can safely and effectively reduce blood loss. Meanwhile, it can also maintain higher RBC, HB, HCT levels without disturbing CRP and ESR levels after surgery.

The Effect of Tranexamic Acid on Operative and Postoperative Blood Loss in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusions. World Neurosurg 2022; 166:e443-e450. [PMID: 35840090 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2022.07.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2022] [Revised: 07/05/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) on reducing perioperative blood loss and length of stay after transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). Spine surgery is associated with the potential for significant blood loss, and adequate hemostasis is essential to visualizing crucial structures during the approach and procedure. Although TXA use has been extensively studied in the pediatric and adult spinal deformity literature, there is a dearth of literature on its efficacy in reducing blood loss for patients who undergo 1- to 3-level TLIF. METHODS All patients requiring 1- to 3-level TLIF who received a preoperative loading dose of TXA were grouped and compared with patients who didn't receive TXA. Demographic, surgical, and laboratory values were collected and analyzed. Continuous and categorical variables were analyzed with χ2, Kruskal-Wallis, or analysis of variance tests, depending on normality and data type. Multiple linear regressions were developed to determine independent predictors of the estimated blood loss (EBL), total blood loss, drain output, and length of stay. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. RESULTS Patients who received preoperative TXA had more comorbidities (P = 0.006), longer surgery length (P < 0.001), and longer length of stay (P = 0.004). TXA was independently associated with a decreased day 0, 1, 2, and total drain output (P < 0.001, P = 0.001, P = 0.007, P < 0.001, respectively), but was not associated with a change in EBL, total blood loss, or length of stay. CONCLUSIONS The application of preoperative TXA for patients undergoing 1- to 3-level TLIF reduced drain output in the first 2 postoperative days, but it did not affect hospital length of stay, total blood loss, or EBL.

Efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid for patients with intertrochanteric fractures treated with intramedullary fixation: A systematic review and meta-analysis of current evidence in randomized controlled trials. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:945971. [PMID: 36199695 PMCID: PMC9528975 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.945971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been widely applied to reduce perioperative bleeding. Recently, several studies focused on the administration of TXA in the treatment for with intertrochanteric fracture patients treated with intramedullary fixation. However, the efficacy and safety of TXA in these studies remain controversial. Therefore, we performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the efficacy and safety of TXA in intertrochanteric fracture patients treated with intramedullary fixation.Methods: We systematically searched electronic databases, including Cochrane, PubMed, and EMBASE, up to 16 May 2022. The efficacy and safety of TXA was evaluated in four aspects, which were bleeding-related outcomes, non-bleeding-related outcomes, thromboembolic events, and other complications. The outcomes of these studies were extracted and analyzed by RevMan Manager 5.4.Results: Finally, nine randomized controlled trials, involving nine hundred and seventy-two intertrochanteric fracture patients treated with TXA, were enrolled in this study. In the bleeding-related outcomes, TXA group was significantly lower than the control group in terms of total blood loss (MD = −219.42; 95% CI, −299.80 to −139.03; p < 0.001), intraoperative blood loss (MD = −36.81; 95% CI, −54.21 to −19.41; p < 0.001), hidden blood loss (MD = −189.23; 95% CI, −274.92 to −103.54; p < 0.001), and transfusion rate (RR = 0.64; 95% CI, 0.49 to 0.85; p = 0.002). Moreover, the postoperative hemoglobin on day 3 of the TXA group was significantly higher than that of the control group (MD = 5.75; 95% CI, 1.26 to 10.23; p = 0.01). In the non-bleeding-related outcomes, the length of hospital stays was significantly shorter in the TXA group (MD = −0.67; 95% CI, −1.12 to −0.23; p = 0.003). In terms of thromboembolic events, there was no significant differences between the TXA group and control group in deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke. As for complications and mortality, there was no significant differences between the TXA group and control group in respiratory infection, renal failure, and postoperative mortality within 1 year.Conclusion: TXA is an effective and safe drug for perioperative bleeding control in intertrochanteric fracture patients treated with intramedullary fixation. However, the long-term efficacy of TXA still needs to be investigated by large-scale multicenter randomized controlled trials.Level of evidence: II, Systematic review and Meta-analysis.Systematic Review Registration:https://inplasy.com/, identifier [INPLASY202280027]
