Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to verify, through clinical examination and doppler, the non-inferiority of the drug test (heparin sodium 5.000UI/0.25 mL - HIPOLABOR) in relation to the drug compared (heparin sodium 5.000USP/mL - APP) in preventing the development of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing surgery for medium risk for the development of this pathology.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Accept all items described in IC signing it in two ways;
* Be aged between 18 and 60;
* Be alert to the need for surgery antithrombotic prophylaxis;
* Be classified as "moderate risk" for developing VTE, according to the protocol of prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis of the Brazilian Society of Angiology and Vascular Surgery.

Exclusion Criteria

* Acute coronary syndrome, it will make use of anticoagulation;
* Immobilization of the lower limbs due to fractures, because in this way will be considered as high risk;
* History of recent stroke;
* Patients at high risk of bleeding in which the use of heparin is contra-indicated;
* General Surgery in patients over 60 years in the case of patients at high risk for VTE;
* general surgery in patients 40 to 60 years with additional risk factors for development of VTE;
* Major amputations;
* More orthopedic surgeries;
* Patients with pre-surgical diagnosis of malignant neoplasms;
* Patients with a platelet level below 100x109 / L;
* Use of anticoagulants 48 hours before randomization;
* Severe liver failure;
* Be classified as "Low Risk" or "high risk" for developing VTE, according to Maffei et al. (2005);
