Arthroplasty, Replacement, Hip, Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee, Prevention, Venous Thromboembolism (VTE)
Conditions
Brief summary
This clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the anticoagulant Dimolegin® compared to low molecular weight heparin (Clexane®) for the prevention of venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in patients undergoing major joint (hip or knee) replacement surgery. The study will assess the incidence of VTE, VTE-related mortality, and all-cause mortality during different follow-up periods in both treatment groups. Additionally, the study will evaluate the frequency of bleeding events and the incidence, number, and characteristics of all adverse events associated with Dimolegin® and Clexane® therapy.
Interventions
Subgroup 2A (Hip Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty will receive Clexane® subcutaneously administered 12±1 hours before surgery starting 6-10 hours after surgery everyday for 35±2 days. Subgroup 2B (Knee Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty will receive Clexane® subcutaneously administered 12±1 hours before surgery everyday for 14±1 days.
Subgroup 1A (Hip Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty will receive Dimolegin® starting 6-10 hours after surgery everyday for 35±2 days. Subgroup 1B (Knee Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty will receive Dimolegin® starting 6-10 hours after surgery everyday for 14±1 days.
Subgroup 2A (Hip Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty will receive placebo Dimolegin® starting 6-10 hours after surgery everyday for 35±2 days. Subgroup 2B (Knee Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty will receive placebo Dimolegin® starting 6-10 hours after surgery everyday for 14±1 days.
Subgroup 1A (Hip Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty will receive palcebo Clexane® subcutaneously administered 12±1 hours before surgery starting 6-10 hours after surgery everyday for 35±2 days. Subgroup 2B (Knee Arthroplasty): Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty will receive placebo Clexane® subcutaneously administered 12±1 hours before surgery everyday for 14±1 days.
