- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <br> 1. Rivaroxaban concentration in blood samples is measured using ultra-performance liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometer (UPLC MS/MS) at baseline, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 18, 36 and 48 hours<br> 2. Rivaroxaban concentration in urine samples is measured using ultra-performance liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometer (UPLC MS/MS) at (-2 to 0), (0 to 3), (3 to 6), (6 to 9), (9 to 12), (12 to 15), (15 to 18), at 36, and at 48 hours<br> 3. Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), time for maximum concentration (Tmax), volume of distribution (Vd), clearance (Cl), and half-life (t1/2) are obtained using WinNonlin software (pharmacokinetic software) at baseline, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 18, 36 and 48 hours<br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <br> 1. Prothrombin time (PT) is measured using the standard quantitative method used in the medical laboratories at 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 18, 36, and 48 hours<br> 2. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) is measured using the standard quantitative method used in the medical care laboratories at 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 18, 36, and 48 hours<br>
