What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NadroparinDrug

    Also called Fraxiparin

    Patients receive before surgery 3 days 2850 IU nadroparin. anti-Xa levels will be measured. After surgery they receive 5700 IU for 4 weeks as standard care in our hospital. 3 days and 4 weeks after surgery anti-Xa levels will be measured again.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
NadroparinExperimentalpatients above 140 kg will receive a dose of 2850 IU nadroparine pre-operatively, anti-Xa factor will be determined 3 days after nadroparin use. After surgery patients receive 5700 IU nadroparin (our standard treatment). Three days after surgery and 4 weeks after surgery anti-Xa factor will be measured again.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wendy Schijns, MD (+31 88 005 8888, wschijns@rijnstate.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

anti-Xa activity 4 hours after subcutaneous administration of 5700 IU nadroparin (time frame: 4 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
