Introduction

778,973 prescriptions for warfarin in Ireland (2008) Aim of study
Audit to assess standard of care provided to patients as determined by TTR Atrial fibrillationPulmonary embolism / Deep vein thrombosisPost-valve replacement Secondary objective to undertake an economic assessment of the model of AF associated stroke increases progressively with age RR reduction of stroke with warfarin over aspirin 39% Audit standards
North Dublin Population Stroke Study 2010: BCSH recommendation - 60% TTR (+/- 0.5 units target) <25% of those with known AF anticoagulated with 4 weekly testing for those stabilised (Ansell et al) Models of care
Primary care, secondary care, patient self-testing Protocol development and ICGP Ethical Approval (Nov ’09) Time in therapeutic range (TTR) assessment Inclusion of Rosendaal’s method of linear interpolation Complete GP® Rosendaal linear interpolation method or % time spent in range Study Setting

Primary care anti-coagulant model adopted in 2002 Patient care pathways and proactive audit assessments Clinical audit of the management of patients in an

Conclusion
Simple adjustment to software allowed incorporation of TTR AF 61%, DVT/PE 13%, Post-valve replacement 14.5% TTR in re-audit increased to 61% from 54% (12 months) Cost to practice of managing one GMS AF patient on warfarin Time in Therapeutic Range
