NCT04031859

Brief Summary

The main objective for this study is validation for the proposed risk stratification tool, by evaluating the clinical outcomes for its use post TKR Surgeries. For this objective, the design that is used is Randomized Trial.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Venous thromboembolism (VTE) complications

    Deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, sudden death

    35 days post total Knee Replacement surgery

  • Bleeding events

    Major or minor bleeding will be recorded

    35 days post total Knee Replacement surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Surgical site infection

    35 days post total Knee Replacement surgery

Study Arms (2)

Group A

EXPERIMENTAL

In this group a VTE risk stratification procedure will be used

Drug: acetylsalicylic acid

Group B

NO INTERVENTION

In this group a standard VTE risk stratification procedure will be used (Caprini VTE risk assessment tool)

Interventions

It's a VTE risk stratification tool or procedure that will be used after total knee replacement (TKR) to help surgeons in choosing the tailored VTE prophylaxis according to patients' specific VTE risk, this tool will stratify the TKR-patient in one of three risk-groups: Low high risk who will be prescribed Aspirin upon hospital discharge as extended VTE prophylaxis post TKR surgery, or moderate high risk group who will be prescribed oral anti coagulant (like rivaroxaban) as extended prophylaxis, and the last group is very high risk group who will be prescribed parenteral anticoagulant ( like Enoxaparin) plus compression devices.

Also known as: VTE risk stratification procedure
Group A

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male or Female patients who are planned for elective TKR surgery (primary only).
  • Agreed to sign the Informed consent form (ICF).
  • Patients aged older than 18 years.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients receiving anticoagulant for treatment.
  • Patients with a history of DVT or PE were excluded from the study due to the marked increase in the risk of recurrent VTE compared to the general risk of (7% vs. 0.1%); (Fahrni, 2015).
  • Patients with renal or hepatic failure, renal failure is defined as end-stage kidney disease (on dialysis); hepatic failure is defined as complete liver cirrhosis.
  • Pregnant woman.
  • Revision surgeries.
