Summary
Background and study aims Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of arthritis, which
most often affects the knee. It occurs when the protective cartilage on the end of bones
wears away. The bones then rub against one another, which can cause stiffness, pain and a
reduction in a person's range of movement. A knee joint replacement is a common procedure
where the weight bearing surfaces of the knee joint are replaced with metal and plastic
components to relieve the pain and disability brought on by OA. Tranexamic Acid（TXA） is a
traditional method to reduce blood loss, pain score and complications. It is not known
however, what is the best method of TXA for the patients with TKA. The aim of this study is
to find out whetherVisual Field Infiltration of Tranexamic Acid Reduced the Blood Loss in
patients who have had knee replacement surgery.
