- Number of Participants With Elevated Serum Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time Above the Normal Range (> 36.2 Seconds). [ Time Frame: Collected 6 hours after unfractionated heparin dose until patient was taken of unfractionated heparin, an average of 1 week ]Surrogate marker for whether or not the patient would be eligible for neuraxial anesthesia based on guidelines for neuraxial anesthesia in pregnant women receiving VTE prophylaxis
- Number of Participants Diagnosed With Venous Thromboembolism (Pulmonary Embolism and/or Deep Venous Thromboembolism) [ Time Frame: Assessed throughout hospitalization, an average length of 8 days, until 6 weeks after delivery ]
- Number of Participants Who Did Not Receive or Had a Delay of Neuraxial Anesthesia Due to Unfractionated Heparin [ Time Frame: Assessed at time of delivery ]
- Number of Participants That Received General Anesthesia [ Time Frame: Assessed at time of delivery ]
- Number of Participants That Had a Delay in Timing of Delivery Due to Unfractionated Heparin [ Time Frame: Assessed at time of delivery ]
- Maximum Anti-Factor Xa Level Measured [ Time Frame: Collected 6 hours after unfractionated heparin dose until patient was taken of unfractionated heparin, an average of 1 week ]
- Mode of Delivery [ Time Frame: Assessed at time of delivery ]
- Estimated Blood Loss From Delivery [ Time Frame: Assessed at time of delivery ]
- Number of Participants That Received a Blood Transfusion [ Time Frame: From time of delivery until 6 weeks after delivery ]
