On POD 3, the mean hemoglobin in the TXA group was 12.74±0.87 g/dL, whereas in the control group it was 11.33±0.80 g/dL, which was highly significant (p<0.001).

However, the reduction in intraoperative blood loss did not reach statistical significance.
This finding is consistent with the study by Arun-Kumar and Naresh-Babu, who reported that local infiltration of TXA showed a trend toward reduced intraoperative blood loss but with comparable effectiveness to intravenous TXA in spine surgeries [ 8 ].
