Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary endpoint is to demonstrate that continuous infusion of fondaparinux provides a better thromboprophylaxis (assessed by anti Xa activity) than subcutaneous administration.;Secondary Objective: (1) Plasma antifactor Xa activity at baseline (before drug administration) and at 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours after fundaparinux administration (even though clinical efficacy is not completely represented by FXa activity) will be measured. (2) Measurements of routine hemostasis parameters, thrombine- antithrombin complex (TAT), D- dimeres and thromboelastometry study (ROTEM) at 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours after drug administration (3) Safety : Patient follow-up until day 28 after randomization or until hospital discharge ;Primary end point(s):
