Summary

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a synthetic anti-fibrinolytic agent that has been well studied and routinely used for hip and knee arthroplasty. In hip and knee arthroplasty, the use of tranexamic acid decreases blood loss and the need for transfusion without increasing the risk of thromboembolic events. Due to the increased use of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in the treatment of shoulder pathology, there has been interest in making the procedure safer for patients. TXA is a promising drug which could be useful to surgeons as they seek to achieve this goal, however, it has not been extensively studied in this setting. The purpose of this prospective randomized, controlled study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of using tranexamic acid to decrease blood loss in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.
