What medical problems or side effects do participants have when taking rivaroxaban versus enoxaparin?

Participants will: Take rivaroxaban 10 mg orally once daily for 7 days, or enoxaparin 40 mg subcutaneously once daily for 7 days after surgery Undergo duplex color Doppler ultrasound scans of the legs on day 5 an
