简要总结
The objective of this study is to compare oral rivaroxaban with injectable enoxaparin in orthopaedic trauma patients to determine if orally administered rivaroxaban once daily carries greater compliance and overall satisfaction than enoxaparin self-administered by subcutaneous injection once daily.
详细描述
This study is a randomized, controlled trial of orthopaedic trauma patients presenting to a single academic level one trauma center that require an extended course of venous thromboembolism event chemoprophylaxis. The goal is to compare oral rivaroxaban with our standard-of-care, injectable enoxaparin in orthopaedic trauma patients to determine if orally administered rivaroxaban once daily carries greater compliance and overall satisfaction than enoxaparin self-administered by subcutaneous injection once daily.
All patients included in the study would be treated with the standard enoxaparin 40 milligram injection while an inpatient. Upon hospital discharge, those requiring extended venous thromboembolism event chemoprophylaxis will be randomized to receive 20 days of either self-injected enoxaparin 40 milligrams or oral rivaroxaban,10 milligrams, a non-vitamin K oral anticoagulant. Both groups will then receive our current standard of care, aspirin 81 milligrams once daily for the remaining 3 weeks, for a total of 6 weeks of venous thromboembolism event chemoprophylaxis. Routine postoperative care will be provided by the treating surgeon.

结局指标
主要结局
adherence to medication regimen
时间窗: 6 weeks
measured with Morisky Medication Adherence Scale instrument; Score range is 0-8, 0 = low adherence to medication regimen, 8 = jigh adherence to medication regimen
patient satisfaction with treatment regimen
时间窗: 6 weeks
measured with Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9) instrument. TSQM-9 scores have a range of 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating higher satisfaction.
次要结局
