Hemostatic Effect of Platelet Rich Fibrin Versus Tranexamic Acid After Tooth Extraction in Patients Under Anticoagulant Therapy: OAJBS Publishers
Hemostatic Effect of Platelet Rich Fibrin Versus Tranexamic Acid After Tooth Extraction in Patients Under Anticoagulant Therapy by Salman Shams in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science
Objective:
The compare the efficacy achieved by platelet rich fibrin versus tranexamic
acid dressing placed in bony socket after tooth extraction in patients who are
taking anticoagulant drugs. Study design: Experimental study. Place and
Duration of study: Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Liaquat
University of Medical & Health Sciences, Jamshoro / Hyderabad, from 13th April
2017 to 12th April 2018. Methodology: All 84 patients were divided into 2 equal
groups by lottery method, group-A and group-B. In group A, after the tooth
extraction, socket was filled with dressing of 4.85% tranexamic acid (TXA). In
group B, a platelet rich fibrin (PRF) extracted from the autologous blood and
stabilized in the post extraction socket with sutures. Post-extraction site was
monitored for one week to assess and record the bleeding from tooth socket on
1st two hours before dismissal, 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 7th days postoperatively. In
case of no bleeding from socket on 7th postoperative day, positive efficacy was
considered. Results: There were 84 patients in total. Males were 50/84 (59.5%)
while females were 34/84 (40.5%). Efficacy in Group A (Platelet rich fibrin)
was found in 41/42 (97.61%) patients while in Group B (Tranexamic acid) it was
found in 39/42 (92.86%) patients. When the Chi. square test was applied to see
effects between efficacies in both groups, it was found that there were no
significant association between both groups having p-value 0.306. After the
stratification of gender, and duration of anticoagulant use, the efficacy was
not found significant among both groups.
