Abstract

BACKGROUND: The release of a pneumatic tourniquet during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) causes an abrupt increase in blood flow to the lower limb, which may result in transient hemodynamic instability. The aim of this study was to quantify the magnitude and duration of these changes in a real-world clinical setting. METHODS: ) were recorded at three time points: baseline (pre-release), 3minutes (T3), and 6minutes (T6) after tourniquet release. Statistical analysis was performed using repeated-measures ANOVA or the Friedman test, according to data distribution, with p
