Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Composite of International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) Major Bleeding/Clinically Relevant Non-major Bleeding (CRNM) While Undergoing Elective TKR or THR at the End of Treatment + 2 Days2 weeks + 2 days for TKR, 5 weeks + 2 days for THR

TKR = Total knee replacement; THR = Total hip replacement. ISTH major bleeding is 1) Fatal or 2) Bleeding in a critical organ, such as brain, spine, eye, retroperitoneum, joint, heart sac, or skeletal muscle (and resulting in compartment syndrome), or 3) Bleeding that results in a fall of hemoglobin of 2 g/dL or more or transfusion of 2 units or more of packed red cells or whole blood within 24 hours. CRNM bleeding is bleeding that

1) Is clinically acute and overt 2) Does not satisfy criteria as a major bleed but requires medical intervention, such as a visit to a physician's office, emergency room, or urgent care center for epistaxis
