Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of Participants With Venous Thromboembolic (VTE) Events [ Time Frame: Treatment period (up to day 8+/-2 days visit) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (proximal and distal) as detected by routine bilateral venography on day 8 +/- 2, plus symptomatic DVT confirmed by venography during the treatment period or PE confirmed by objective testing


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of Participants With VTE Events and All Cause Mortality [ Time Frame: Treatment period (up to day 8+/-2 days visit) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) (proximal and distal) as detected by routine bilateral venography on day 8 +/- 2, plus symptomatic DVT confirmed by venography during the treatment period or Pulmonary Embolism (PE) confirmed by objective testing and all deaths.

  • Number of Participants With Proximal DVT, PE (Pulmonary Embolism) and VTE Related Mortality [ Time Frame: Treatment period (up to day 10) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) (proximal) as detected by routine bilateral venography on day 8 +/- 2, plus symptomatic proximal DVT confirmed by venography during the treatment period or PE confirmed by objective testing plus VTE related mortality

  • Number of Participants With Proximal DVT [ Time Frame: Treatment period (up to day 8+/-2 days visit) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) (proximal) as detected by routine bilateral venography on day 8 +/- 2, plus symptomatic proximal DVT confirmed by venography during the treatment period

  • Number of Participants With Major Bleeding Events (MBE) [ Time Frame: From approximately 14 days prior to surgery to 4-6 weeks post surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
