Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1.Uncontrollable infection systemically or locally, including but not limited to pulmonary infection, skin infection, urinary tract infection, etc. 2.Serum albumin concentration = 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >= 90 mmHg), or requiring concomitant use of thiazide diuretics, loop diuretics, potassium-sparing diuretics, etc. 9.Poorly controlled diabetic patients (fasting blood glucose > 10 mmol/L). 10.History of severe allergies affecting study evaluation, or allergy to tranexamic acid and its analogs. 11.Previous open knee surgery on the same side (arthroscopic surgery is permitted). 12.Planning to undergo other surgeries within 1 month (including simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty). 13.Patients with hepatic or renal insufficiency (eGFR 2 times the upper limit of normal range). 14.Positive for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C antibody, HIV antigen/antibody, or syphilis antibody during the screening period. 15.Patients who used drugs affecting coagulation function (such as aspirin, clopidogrel, ticlopidine, dipyridamole, ginkgo biloba preparations, heparin, warfarin, citrate, hemocoagulase, vitamin K, antifibrinolytics, etamsylate, etc.) within 1 week before surgery. 16.Patients who used drugs with the risk of causing bleeding and thrombosis within 1 week before surgery, such as oral contraceptives, estrogen, or prothrombin complex concentrates, etc. 17.Patients who used drugs increasing hemoglobin levels (such as erythropoietin (EPO)) within 4 weeks before surgery. 18.Patients who took iron supplements within 1 week before surgery or used intravenous iron within 4 weeks. 19.Presence of mental or neurological diseases that the investigator deems may affect participation in the study, or history of drug abuse or alcoholism, i.e., consuming more than 14 standard units of alcohol per week within 3 months before screening (1 standard unit = 14 g alcohol, such as 360 mL beer, 45 mL spirits with 40% alcohol content, or 150 mL wine). 20.Patients who have participated in or are currently participating in another clinical trial within 3 months before screening (the definition of participating in a clinical trial is based on the patient receiving an intervention). 21.Pregnant or lactating women, or fertile patients who cannot ensure the use of at least one acceptable contraceptive method during the study period and within 3 months after the study ends. 22.Patients who the investigator deems unsuitable for participating in this clinical trial.
