dc.description.abstractA poster presentation regarding a framework for INR testing and anticoagulation management in community pharmacies. Introduction: The dramatic increase in the requests for International Normalised Ratio (INR) monitoring is resulting in overburdened outpatient clinics. Point-of-Care testing (POCT) devices that measure the INR are adequate alternatives to the laboratory based INR testing system. Aims: • To propose and investigate the acceptability and feasibility of a structured community pharmacist-led anticoagulation service, which combines INR monitoring and warfarin dose adjustments. • To evaluate the accuracy and clinical usefulness of the CoaguChek ®XS monitor compared to the anticoagulation laboratory procedure.en_GB
