NCT03278795
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common, preventable and treatable disease that is characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation that is due to airway and/or alveolar abnormalities usually caused by significant exposure to noxious particles or gases. Acute exacerbations may occur during the management of stable COPD which can negatively impact health status, rates of hospitalization and re-admission. During exacerbation, some patients need immediate admission to the respiratory intensive care unit (RICU) for ventilatory support. As prolonged mechanical ventilation has unfavourable impacts, it is Important to minimize the duration of mechanical ventilation and perform extubation as soon as possible. In recent years, development of numerous models of artificial respiration, which could support spontaneous breathing, has made it possible to gradually decrease the mechanical ventilatory support. From these new modes, PSV which is a well known weaning mode will be compared in our study to a new weaning mode which is a volume support ventilation (VSV).

AECOPD increases the risk of VTE.VTE prevention is a long way to go for high-risk VTE patients in China.The incidence of AECOPD complicated with VTE in Asian population is high and the mortality rate is high.Rivaroxaban, a new oral anticoagulant, has been widely used in the treatment and prevention of VTE.However the question about the efficacy and safety of new oral anticoagulant compared with LMWHs for the prevention of symptomatic VTE and VTE-related death post-hospital discharge in high-risk AECOPD patients is still unknown. Thus this study is to evaluate if the prophylactic anticoagulation effect by Rivaroxaban is non-inferiority than Enoxaprine in high risk AECOPD and to evaluate the safety of using Rivaroxaban to prevent VTE in high risk AECOPD comparing with Enoxaprine.
