Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of bleedings and adverse reactions
Time Frame: 90 days

Safety of the different strategies of prophylaxis and anticoagulation: number of bleedings and adverse reactions in each group:

Evaluation of the following variables:

Incidence of major bleeding, defined as meeting any of these criteria:

a) fatal bleeding or bleeding that occurs in a critical area or organ (for example, intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intraarticular or pericardial, or intramuscular with compartment syndrome), b ) causes a drop in hemoglobin level of 20 g/L or more, or c) requires the transfusion of 2 or more units of whole blood or packed red blood cells.

Incidence of clinically relevant non-major bleeding: manifest, spontaneous or post-traumatic bleeding, which does not meet the criteria for major bleeding but which in the judgment of the investigator is relevant.

Incidence of clinically relevant bleeding: all major and non-major hemorrhages clinically relevant.

Incidence of adverse reactions.

90 days
