Hypertension and grading are important risk factors for occult blood loss in hip arthroplasty: a retrospective study analysis
Hypertension ≥ grade 2 (systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 mmHg) independently exacerbates HBL in THA patients through a dose-response relationship. It is recommended that preoperative systolic blood pressure be maintained below 160 mmHg, and metabolic status be optimized to reduce the risk of blood transfusion.
