The effects of lower-extremity total joint replacement for arthritis on obesity.

abstract：:We compared outcomes in 2 groups undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with different blood-saving strategies (ie, chemoprophylaxis vs reinfusion). We hypothesized that chemoprophylaxis would lead to reduced blood loss and fewer transfusions, with no increase in associated complications. Group A was a prospective s...
