Summary
In this study the investigators want to look at whether using aspirin instead of rivaroxaban
(after initial treatment with rivaroxaban) works as well at preventing blood clots while also
reducing risk of bleeding and is more cost effective in patients who have either a total hip
replacement or total knee replacement.
