Abstract:[Objective] To investigate the effect of intraarticular infusion of hemostatic-anesthetic-steriod mixture in total hip arthroplasty (THA). [Methods] A retrospective study was done on 92 patients who received the primary unilateral THA from October 2022 to March 2024. According to preoperative doctor-patient communication, 46 patients in the drug group had 120 mL of hemostatic-anestheticsteriod mixture infused intraarticularly after THA, while the other 46 patients in the control group had no drugs used with same volume of normal saline intraarticular infusion. The perioperative clinical and laboratory data of the two groups were compared. [Results] All patients had THA performed successfully without complications, such as nerve and vascular injuries. Although there were no significant differences in operation time, incision length, intraoperative blood loss and incision healing grade between the two groups (P>0.05), the drug group proved significantly superior to the control group in terms of postoperative drainage volume [(216.3±32.4) mL vs (387.4±45.9) mL, P<0.001] and total dominant blood loss [(451.6±54.1) mL vs (625.5±63.3) mL, P<0.001]. In addition, the drug group had significantly lower incidence of postoperative deep venous thrombosis (DVT) than the control group (2.2% vs 15.2%, P=0.026). The pain VAS score was significantly decreased (P< 0.05), while the 6-minute walking distance was significantly increased in both groups over time postoperatively (P<0.05). The drug group was significantly lower than the control group in VAS score [(4.0±1.3) vs (6.7±1.4), P<0.001; (4.1±1.2) vs (7.3±1.3), P<0.001] 1 and 2 days postoperatively, whereas the former was significantly higher than the latter in the 6-minute walking distance [(53.4±7.2) m vs (36.7±2.5) m, P<0.001; (154.0±14.1) m vs (124.8±14.0) m, P<0.001] 3 and 7 days after surgery. As for blood test, there was no significant difference in Hct and D-D between the two groups before operation (P>0.05). Compared with those preoperatively, the Hct was significantly decreased (P< 0.05), while the D-D was significantly increased 3 days after surgery in both groups (P<0.05). The drug group had significantly highe Hct than the control group [(38.1±1.3)% vs (36.2±0.5)%, P<0.001], whereas the former measured significantly lower D-D than the latter [(325.8± 42.9) μg/L vs (377.8±53.3) μg/L, P<0.001] 3 days postoperatively. [Conclusion] Intraarticular infusion of mixture, containing tranexamic acid, ropivacaine and dexamethasone, does reduce postoperative pain, decline postoperative blood loss, decrease occurrence of DVT, and is conducive to the functional recovery of the affected limb.after THA.
