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 compare two types of low-molecular-weight heparin, enoxaparin and bemiparin, as regards their efficacy and safety in venous thromboembolism prevention among intensive care unit patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A prospective randomized trial to compare thromboprophylaxis using bemiparin and enoxaparin in critically ill patients in ICU. The study included one hundred bedridden patients in intensive care unit who are at high risk for developing venous thromboembolism and require long term anticoagulation

Patients were divided into two groups each one consists of 50 patients. One group received bemiparin 3500 IU subcutaneous once daily and the other group received enoxaparin 40 mg subcutaneous once daily as a prophylaxis against thromboembolism.

Patients were followed up for 60 days for the development of deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and complications related to the injected anticoagulant.
