The effect of tourniquet release on blood loss in total knee arthroplasty

Abstract

To reduce blood loss and transfusion requirements, twenty seven consecutive total knee arthroplasties carried out were divided into two groups by releasing tourniquet for hemostasis. In Group I patients whose tourniquets were released for hemostasis, blood loss were measured peroperative and hemovac drain was 935±310 ml, presumable real blood loss was 1154±329 ml; however, in group II patients whose tourniquets were released after the application of compressive bandage in lower limb the above mentioned values were 840±229 ml,1037±239 ml respectively. The differences between and within the two groups each, needed blood transfusion and patients in each group were administered two units of blood. Mean Preoperative Hgb values in patients given blood transfusion were 12.4±1.43 gr/dl whereas in ten patients who did not require blood transfusion mean Hgb values were 14.1±1.50 gr/dl and the difference was statistically important (P<0.05). We came to the conclusion that in total knee arthroplasty, tourniquet release for hemostasis before wound closure does not have any statistically important effect on blood loss.
