  • Has had multiple or traumatic epidural or spinal punctures immediately prior to randomization (defined as grossly bloody or greater than 3 attempted cannulations).
  • Requires use of an indwelling epidural catheter for post-operative analgesia.
  • Severe hypertension defined as systolic blood pressure greater than 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure greater than 110 mmHg at Screening.
  • Moderate to severe renal dysfunction or disease (based on calculated creatinine clearance less than 45 mL/min/1.73 m2) at Screening.

  • Currently participating in another investigational study or has participated in an investigational study within 30 days prior to Screening.
  • Any other serious disease or condition at Screening or Randomization that would compromise subject safety or make it difficult to successfully manage and follow the subject according to the protocol.
  • Requires the use of pneumatic compression post-operatively.
  • Known inherited thrombophilic disorder such as the factor V Leiden or prothrombin gene mutations or deficiencies of antithrombin, protein C, or protein S.
