Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Unicompartment knee arthroplasty (UKA) is gradually applied in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, and the management of perioperative blood loss is a hot spot in clinical research. It is very important to control perioperative blood loss and changes in hemoglobin level for postoperative rapid recovery.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the changes in the blood-related indexes during the management of perioperative blood loss in UKA, so as to provide technical reference and data reference for clinical application.
METHODS: Clinical data 70 patients undergoing UKA at the Department of Bone and Joint of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively, and received the management of perioperative blood loss. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, total blood loss and rate of blood transfusion were recorded; the preoperative hemoglobin, albumin, coagulation indexes, D-dimer, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein were investigated. The effect of operation on the postoperative blood loss and drainage volume was analyzed. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The operation time was (89.36±19.89) minutes, intraoperative blood loss was (39.71±23.64) mL, postoperative drainage volume was (56.21±34.21) mL, and rate of autologous blood transfusion was 0. (2) The operation time exerted no effect on the intraoperative blood loss (P=0.685 7), but affected on the postoperative drainage volume (P=0.021 6). (3) The total postoperative blood loss was little, and the blood loss did not differ significantly at 3 hours, 1, 3 and 7 days postoperatively (P > 0.05). (4) There was a slight decline in hemoglobin on days 1-3 after surgery, and then returned slowly; the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein increased rapidly within 1 day after surgery and declined within 1-3 days; the D-dimer rapidly increased on day 1 after surgery, then rapidly decreased on days 1-3, and then slowly increased on days 3-7; the plasma total protein and albumin were stable and fluctuated in the normal range within 1-3 days. (5) These results suggest that the UKA had short operation time, few total blood loss and slight fluctuation, and the blood-related indexes exhibit different fluctuations. Moreover, the preoperative management of blood loss can reduce the total blood loss and rate of blood transfusion.
