Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of the anticoagulantblood thinner Clexane on the development of leg clots following electrophysiology studies EPS and or radiofrequency ablation RFA
People who suffer heart palpitations will sometimes need hospital admission to undergo an electrophysiology study and or a Radiofrequency Ablationin order to diagnose and or treat their condition
Radiofrequency ablation is a procedure to stop abnormal heart rhythms EPSRFA studies require the puncture of the leg veins Previous experience has shown that following the puncture of leg veins there is a small risk of developing a blood clot in the leg
It is not known whether giving blood thinners anticoagulants after the procedure will decrease this risk Enoxaparin Sodium Clexane is an anticoagulant used extensively and safely following bone Orthopaedic surgery to prevent blood clots from developing in the legs
