Measure
A: Standard Dose Enoxaparin
Participants will receive Enoxaparin 40 mg subcutaneously once daily. On study Enoxaparin will be administered for up 14 days during hospitalization. After the day 14 assessment, treatment arms will be un-blinded in order to appropriately schedule a bilateral lower extremity ultrasound for participants enrolled onto Arm A at day 17. Enoxaparin
B: Weight Adjusted Enoxaparin
Participants will receive Enoxaparin at 1mg/kg subcutaneously once daily with maximum dose of 100 mg daily. Participants who weigh more than 100kg will be capped at 100mg. On study Enoxaparin will be administered for up 14 days during hospitalization. Enoxaparin
