Evaluation of the Therapeutic Effect of Local Application of Tranexamic Acid in Rotator Cuff Repair

This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraosseous tranexamic acid administration during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Eligible patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either intraosseous tranexamic acid or intraosseous normal saline placebo. Tranexamic acid will be administered at a dose of 15 mg/kg through intraosseous injection into the proximal humerus after anesthesia induction. The primary outcome will be intraoperative arthroscopic visual clarity assessed using a five-grade visual clarity scoring system during different surgical stages. Secondary outcomes will include irrigation fluid volume, operative time, and frequency of irrigation pressure adjustments. Safety outcomes will include perioperative complications and laboratory assessments. This study will determine whether intraosseous tranexamic acid can improve visualization of the arthroscopic surgical field and optimize surgical conditions during rotator cuff repair.
