OBSUD: Venous Thromboprophylaxis in Bariatric Surgery
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main aim of this study is to compare the influence of total body-weight (TBW), lean body-weight (LBW), ideal body-weight (IBW) or Body Mass Index (BMI) on peak anti-Xa levels at steady-state in bariatric surgery (BS) morbidly obese patients receiving a fixed double dose of dalteparin (5000 IU subcutaneously, twice daily a day) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention. Secondary aims of this study are to identify which body size descriptors (BSD) has the greatest impact and could further be explored for an adjusted low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) dosing algorithm for achieving optimal VTE prevention in BS severely obese patients.

Detailed Description
Severely obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery (BS) are at increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE). How standard LMWH regimen should be adapted to provide both sufficient efficacy and safety in this setting is unclear. The aim of this study is to compare the influence of four BSD on peak anti-Xa levels in BS obese patients receiving high LMWH fixed doses to identify which one had the greatest impact and could further be proposed in LMWH-based thromboprophylaxis dosing algorithms.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of patients whose peak plasma anti-Xa levels is in the prophylactic ranges [at least two days after thromboprophylaxis initiation]
Proportion of patients whose peak plasma anti-Xa levels is in the prophylactic ranges.The target range for prophylactic anti-Xa levels is defined as 0.2 to 0.5 IU/ml
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of patients with symptomatic VTE [3 months]
Proportion of patients with symptomatic VTE
- Proportion of patients with major bleeding [3 months]
Proportion of patients with major bleeding
