Total Blood loss was calculated by the Haemoglobin (Hb) loss method at 4 days and compared in both groups using Mann Whitney test. The mean peri- operative blood loss in group A was 631.69 ± 264.99 ml as compared to 685.55 ± 239.033 ml in group B (p=0.0434). Use of TXA for 3 days following a TKR can be more effective in reducing blood loss.
