Purpose:To study the clinical effectiveness of the topical application of tranexamic acid in hand tendon release.Methods:This was a randomized controlled trial conducted after receiving approval from the local ethics committee according to guidelines from the Helsinki Declaration.Eighty patients who underwent hand tendon release operation in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were included and randomly divided into 2 groups.Patients in the tranexamic acid group(40 cases)received intraoperative topical application of 2 g of tranexamic acid after tendon release,while patients in the conventional group(40 cases)did not receive topical application of tranexamic acid during operation.The operation time,perioperative hemoglobin changes,total blood loss,incidence of early postoperative complications,and total active movement(TAM)before surgery and 6 months after surgery were compared between the 2 groups.The continuous variable which follows normal distribution expressed by mean±SD and used t-test to compare between groups.Meanwhile,categorical variables were used by Chi-square test,and a p＜0.05 indicated that the differences were statistically significant.Results:Both groups were followed up for 7-18 months,with a mean of 10.3 months.Postoperative decrease in hemoglobin was significantly less in the tranexamic acid group than in the conventional group(t=7.611,p＜0.001).The total blood loss in the tranexamic acid group(74.33±20.50)mL was less than that in the conventional group(83.05±17.73)mL,and the difference was statistically significant(p＜0.05).Both groups showed improvement in thumb/finger flexion and extension range of motion after surgery,and the TAM improved compared with those before surgery,and the difference was sta-tistically significant(p＜0.001).The TAM improved more significantly in the tranexamic acid group(87.68°±10.44°)than in the conventional group(80.47°±10.93°)at 6 months after surgery,with a statistically significant difference(t=3.013,p＜0.001).There was no significant difference in operation time and incidence of early postoperative complications between the 2 groups(p=0.798,0.499,respectively).Conclusion:The topical application of tranexamic acid during hand tendon release can significantly reduce postoperative bleeding and improve surgical efficacy,which is worth promoting.
