April 19, 2024 updated by: Bryan Cotton, The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston

Antithrombin to Improve Thromboprophylaxis and Reduce the Incidence of Trauma-Related Venous Thromboembolism (TRAIT)

The purpose of this study is to determine if additional interventions will assist with decreasing the risk and/or severity of thromboembolism (clotting complications) in patients who have experienced a major traumatic event.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Quadruple

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Normal Saline will be given as one time IV before the 3rd dose of Enoxaparin. The dose will be based on patient weight.
Experimental: Thrombate infusion
Bolus intravenous infusion of Thrombate will be given to achieve antithrombin (AT) activity levels at 150% before the 3rd dose of Enoxaparin. The dose will be based on patient weight.
