Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Patients With Major Bleeding Events (MBE)
Time Frame: From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Major bleeding events were defined according to the modified McMaster criteria, and were classified by the investigator as Major bleeding event or Any bleeding event. The criteria for MBE's were: fatal; clinically overt associated with loss of haemoglobin >=20g/L in excess of what was expected; clinically overt leading to the transfusion of >=2 units packed cells or whole blood in excess of what was expected; symptomatic retroperitoneal, intracranial, intraocular or intraspinal; requiring treatment cessation; leading to re-operation
From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Percentage of Patients With Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolic Events (sVTE) and All Cause Mortality
Time Frame: From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
The co-primary efficacy variable sVTE was defined as the composite of documented symptomatic proximal and distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and documented symptomatic non-fatal pulmonary embolism (PE) and All Cause Mortality.
From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Documented Symptomatic Proximal DVT, Documented Symptomatic Distal DVT, Documented Symptomatic Nonfatal Pulmonary Embolism and All-cause Mortality
Time Frame: From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Percentage of participant with documented symptomatic proximal DVT (deep vein thrombosis), documented symptomatic distal DVT, documented symptomatic nonfatal pulmonary embolism and all-cause mortality
From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Percentage of Patients With Major Extra-surgical Site Bleedings
Time Frame: From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Percentage of Patients With Major Extra-surgical Site Bleedings
From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Volume of Wound Drainage (Post-operative)
Time Frame: From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
Volume of Wound Drainage after surgery
From first intake (day of surgery) until 24 hours after last intake (planned: knee replacement: Day 10 after surgery, hip replacement: Day 28-35 after surgery) of Pradaxa
