Summary

This trial will compare different oral blood thinning medications to find the safest + most effective treatment to prevent blood clots after hip fracture surgery. It will benefit patients with hip fractures worldwide.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 50 or older who have a hip fracture that needs surgery and got to the hospital within 24 hours of injury. They can be on low-dose anti-platelet therapy like aspirin. People with cancer-related fractures, those who can't follow up, took lots of blood thinners post-injury, or have certain bleeding/clotting disorders can't join.
What is being tested?
The study compares oral blood thinners Rivaroxaban (10mg) and ASA (81mg) in preventing blood clots after hip fracture surgery. It aims to find out which one is safer and more effective using TEG technology to monitor clotting ability.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include bleeding risks, allergic reactions to the medications, potential gastrointestinal issues with ASA use such as ulcers, and kidney problems if there's pre-existing renal failure.
