Периоперационная гемостатическая терапия у пациентов геронтологического профиля в урологии

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of tranexamic acid in the prevention of intraoperative hemorrhagic complications in geriatric patients with bioply transurethral resection of the prostate (BTURP). The patients were divided into 2 groups by the envelope method. Patients of the first group (control group, n=42) did not receive tranexamic acid infusion. Patients of the second group (main group, n=42) received pre-intraoperative infusion of tranexamic acid at a dose of 2 mg/kg. All patients underwent BTURP on endoscopic equipment according to the standard technique under spinal anesthesia. The groups were compared according to the following criteria: the volume of intraoperative blood loss, the level of erythrocytes, platelets and hemoglobin, indicators of hemostasis, thromboelastography before and after surgery. It was established that the perioperative use of tranexamic acid allowed to significantly reduce the volume of blood loss in BTURP. The method of thromboelastography, due to quantitative and qualitative characteristics, is able to assess how the effectiveness of the use of a fibrinolysis inhibitor is achieved.
