Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Prophylaxis

DISTINCT 1: to determine whether in-hospital thrombosis prophylaxis only is as effective compared with the standard thrombosis prophylaxis approach to prevent symptomatic VTE after total knee and hip arthroplasty in patients with a low VTE risk.
DISTINCT 2: to determine the incidence of symptomatic VTE after total knee and hip arthroplasty in patients with an intermediate VTE risk.
DISTINCT 3: to determine whether intensified thrombosis prophylaxis is more effective and equally safe compared with standard thrombosis prophylaxis to prevent symptomatic VTE in patients with a high VTE risk by comparing symptomatic VTE and bleeding complications.

Secondary objectives 6

  1. To compare risks of clinically relevant non-major bleeds between the targeted thrombosis prophylaxis approach and the standard approach.
  2. To compare the cost-effectiveness of the targeted thrombosis prophylaxis approach with the standard approach.
  3. To determine the incidence of prosthetic joint infection, overall and in subgroups.
  4. To compare patient reported outcome measures in the targeted thrombosis prophylaxis approach with the standard approach.
  5. To investigate the effect of VTE, bleeding and prosthetic joint infections on the functional outcomes after THA and TKA.
  6. To determine the incidence of myocardial infarction, stroke and death overall and in subgroups.
