Abstract

This article represents the first stage of a research in using a direct oral inhibitor of Xa factor, Rivaroxaban, in patients after cementless hip joint arthroplasty. The purpose of the present research was to study the efficacy and safety of the above drug preparation. The investigation involved 20 patients. The efficacy of this anticoagulant therapy was analysed; its assessment did not reveal either any manifestations of thrombotic complications (thrombosis of deep veins on the lower extremities, pulmonary thromboembolism) or cases of haemorrhagic complications. The safety was assessed by the results of general clinical and biochemical blood tests. This research demonstrated that taking of Rivaroxaban ensured high efficacy of anticoagulant therapy for preventing thromboembolic complications and preserved safety for patients after hip joint arthroplasty.
