Pills vs. shots: major trial seeks better way to stop deadly clots after broken legs

NCT ID NCT06370273

Summary

This large UK study aims to find the best way to prevent dangerous blood clots in people who get a leg cast or splint after an injury. It will test if taking pills is as effective and easier than the standard daily injections for high-risk patients, and if any medication is better than just advice for low-risk patients. Over 10,000 participants will be followed for 90 days to see which approach best prevents clots while minimizing risks like bleeding.
