Study Arms (2)
Rivaroxaban
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive rivaroxaban 15mg oral twice daily for 3 weeks after operation, later rivaroxaban 20mg oral once daily until 3 months after the filter is retrieved.
Warfarin/ Nadroparin
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants will receive Nadroparin 1mg/kg twice daily (subcutaneous), plus warfarin 3mg oral once daily for 5 days after the operation, later warfarin(oral) at individually titrated doses(0.75mg to 18mg) to achieve a target international normalized ratio (INR) of 2.0 to 3.0, once daily until 3 months after the filter is retrieved.
Interventions
15mg twice daily for 3 weeks after operation, later 20mg once daily until 3 months after the filter is removed. Application: oral
3mg for 5 days after the operation, later 0.75mg to 18mg depending on INR (2.0-3.0) until until 3 months after the filter is removed. Frequency: once daily Application: oral
Dose: 1mg/kg Duration: 5 days after the operation Frequency: twice daily Application: subcutaneous
