Brief Summary: This is a prospective multicenter cohort study to evaluate the prognostic value of new biological markers in predicting thrombotic events after orthopedic surgery. According to the inclusion and non-inclusion criteria below, the study will include 387 major subjects who will undergo first-line total knee replacement and will receive the same standard prophylactic treatment: anticoagulation with Lovenox® (enoxaparin) 4000 IU/d subcutaneously 6 to 8 hours postoperatively and then daily for 15 days in combination with compression stockings.
Detailed Description: Recruitment and follow-up of patients will be carried out in 3 hospitals by the respective orthopedic teams. Three hundred and eighty-seven patients will be included in the study, over a period of 36 months: 200 in Marseille, 100 in Nice and 87 in Nîmes. The objective of the study was to evaluate the prognostic capacities of the coagulolytic balance of MVs measured after surgery at D0 in the occurrence of a symptomatic or asymptomatic venous thromboembolic event revealed by echodoppler at 1 month after total knee replacement surgery. The management of the subjects is unchanged from the current recommendations and will be homogeneous between the three inclusion centers. Patients will be hospitalized for 5 days and will receive the usual prophylactic anticoagulant treatment with Lovenox® (enoxaparin sodium; LMWH) 4000 IU/d subcutaneously 6 to 8 hours postoperatively and then daily for 15 days in combination with compression stockings, which corresponds to the management of a PTG according to current recommendations.
