Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to determine if there are differences in clinical events, i.e bleeding with associated morbidity, if thromboprophylaxis with LMWH (Low Molecular Weight Heparin) is initiated before or after surgery.
