Abstrakt:	Background: The presence/absence of postoperative anemia are presumed to have an impact on early recovery after surgery. This study was performed to compare hip muscle strength and hemoglobin during the perioperative period in 82 patients undergoing THA. Methods: Evaluation of presence/absence of anemia was performed by calculating the 10-day postoperative/preoperative Hb ratio. Muscle strength was investigated before and 2 months after surgery. Results: Postoperative SLR strength showed a significant difference between the patients whose 10-day postoperative/preoperative Hb ratio was<85% and 85%. Conclusion: We need to consider perioperative strategies to minimize anemia in order to improve patient outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
