Thromboembolism, Trauma Injury, Venous Thromboembolism
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if additional interventions will assist with decreasing the risk and/or severity of thromboembolism (clotting complications) in patients who have experienced a major traumatic event.
Interventions
Bolus intravenous infusion of Thrombate will be given to achieve antithrombin (AT) activity levels at 150% before the 3rd dose of Enoxaparin. The dose will be based on patient weight.
Normal Saline will be given as one time IV before the 3rd dose of Enoxaparin. The dose will be based on patient weight.
