Trial Outcomes & Findings for Aspirin and Compression Devices for VTE Prophylaxis in Orthopaedic Oncology (NCT NCT01696760)

NCT ID: NCT01696760

Last Updated: 2018-12-05

Results Overview

This study will test if the ASA+PCD treatment group has a DVT rate (P1) not more than the DVT rate of the LMWH+PCD treatment group (P0) using a one sided test for these two proportions. Statistical significance will be defined as p \< 0.05.

Measure
Arm I (Acetylsalicylic Acid and PCD)
Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid orally PO BID and wear PCD on days 1-28 after surgery. acetylsalicylic acid: 325 mg twice a day PCD: Wear PCD (Flowtron calf compression). Patients will continue to use PCDs for the duration of their hospitalization. If patients refuse to wear the PCDs, they will be withdrawn from the study.
Arm II (Enoxaparin and PCD)
Patients receive enoxaparin subcutaneously SC QD and wear PCD on days 1-28 after surgery. enoxaparin: 40 mg once daily PCD: Wear PCD (Flowtron calf compression). Patients will continue to use PCDs for the duration of their hospitalization. If patients refuse to wear the PCDs, they will be withdrawn from the study.
