What are the parameters and outcome measures that define high-quality outpatient management of oral vitamin K antagonist therapy?
High-quality outpatient management of warfarin therapy requires systematic monitoring of time in therapeutic range, appropriate dosing adjustments, and patient education to minimize medication errors and adverse events.
Phillips et al. (2007) conducted a review in Thromboembolic disease requiring oral anticoagulation. Oral vitamin K antagonist therapy (warfarin) was evaluated. High-quality oral anticoagulation management with warfarin requires optimizing parameters such as time in therapeutic range, therapy initiation, and perioperative dosing.
