2. Mission
In 2004 and 2005, Warfarin was implicated in an annual average of 43,000 ER
visits for adverse drug events (ADE’s).
That’s second only to ADE’s involving insulin, and it doesn’t include Warfarin-

3. Problem
An INR test measures the clotting time of a patient’s blood. Warfarin, a blood
thinner used by over 2 million people in the US, requires several INR tests
each month.
Helping Patients Regulate Their INR
Frequent testing is obligatory for Warfarin patients, because Warfarin
interacts with a variety of things:
– Food

– Prescription medicines
– Over-the-counter medicines
– Exercise
– Weather
– Menstruation

– And more…

4. Problem
Warfarin interactions can cause the drug to be more potent, which will
increase the clotting time, or less potent, which will decrease the clotting
time. Any change in the clotting time of blood that is outside the therapeutic
range will usually result in a drug dosage adjustment.

Not having the appropriate drug dosage can have fatal

severe bleeding and blood clots.

The burden of frequent INR tests can result in:
– Increased medical costs
– Reduced quality of life (e.g. lifestyle restrictions and increased
bleeding risk)
– Patient dissatisfaction (e.g. inconsistent INR’s)

– Discontinuation of therapy [2]
