Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of Objectively Confirmed VTE Complications

    The primary efficacy outcome was the composite of death from any cause, symptomatic pulmonary embolism (confirmed by ventilation-perfusion scanning, helical computed tomography, pulmonary angiography, or autopsy), symptomatic deep vein thrombosis (confirmed by ultrasonography or venography), or symptomatic extension towards the saphenofemoral junction or symptomatic recurrence of superficial vein thrombosis (confirmed by ultrasonography) up to day 45.

    45 +/- 5 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Composite Primary Efficacy Outcome

    90 +/- 10 days

  • Rate of Major VTE

    90 +/-10 days

  • Rates of Surgery for SVT

    90 +/-10 days

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Major Bleeding (Main Safety Outcome)

    45 +/- 5 days

  • Clinically Relevant Non-major, Minor and Total (Any) Bleeding

    45 +/- 5 days
