Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Total calculated total blood loss
The volume of perioperative blood loss will be determined on the basis of the blood volume and change in hemoglobin from preoperatively to 1 day postoperatively. The volume of total perioperative blood loss will be determined according to the following formula: Total blood loss (ml) = 1000 x 〖Hb〗_loss/〖Hb〗_i
Total surgical drain output
The floor nurse will also document the amount of blood in the indwelling hemovac surgical drain placed in the operative shoulder joint. The drain output will be documented every 8 hours. We will record the drain output for the first 16 hours after surgery - essentially 2 output shifts. If patients are in the hospital longer, we will record the third 24 hour drain output.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of participants with presence of hematoma
Number of participants who needed a post-op blood transfusion
Operative time

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a phase IV, randomized, single-blind, single-center study comparing calculated total blood loss, surgical drain output and hematoma formation in patients who receive 2 doses of Tranexamic Acid (TXA) versus control group undergoing revision total shoulder arthroplasty. Patients will be randomized to either receive 2 doses of IV TXA, first dose prior to surgical incision and second dose given 3 hours later or to the control group, where no TXA will be administered.
Detailed Description
The objectives of the study are to compare the effectiveness of IV TXA on reducing calculated total blood loss, surgical drain output and hematoma formation in patients undergoing revision total shoulder arthroplasty.
