Anti-embolism Stockings
These stockings are designed to reduce the risk of blood clots (deep vein thrombosis) in the legs at times when you are a higher risk of blood clots, such as undergoing an operation.
Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
Recovery from cardioversion only takes a few hours. After the procedure, you may also be required to take antiarrhythmia drugs to help your heart maintain its normal rhythm.
Atrial Fibrillation Cardioversion
Recovery from cardioversion only takes a few hours. After the procedure, you may also be required to take antiarrhythmia drugs to help your heart maintain its normal rhythm.
Future of Acute Coronary Syndromes Patient Outcomes Report
The Future of Acute Coronary Syndromes Patient Outcomes Report anticoagulation Activity initiated and sponsored by AstraZeneca UK
Getting an INR test abroad
A common question I find when answering the telephone for Anti Coagulation Europe is: 'Where can I go to have my INR while I am on holiday?'
How Can We Avoid a Stroke Crisis?

Living with Atrial Fibrillation
If you are healthy and your heart is working normally you are likely to have a regular resting heart rate of around 60 to 90 beats per minute.
Preventing A Blood Clot
This booklet explains the risks and what you and your doctor can do to reduce the risk of developing a blood clot (Venous Thromboembolism or VTE) after an operation to replace a hip or knee joint
Self-monitoring of oral anticoagulation
Self-monitoring of oral anticoagulation: systematic review and meta analysis of individual patient data. Self-monitoring almost halves the risk of developing blood clots compared to conventional care
Self-testing – everyone benefits
The case for providing state support in Ireland to encourage self-testing for patients with heart disease and other blood clotting disorders who are on anticoagulation therapy such as warfarin.
Setting the Standards in Anticoagulation Service Delivery
A Step by Step Guide to Setting Up & Implementing an Anticoagulation Management Service in Primary Care
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Article
Every thing you need to know about severe aortic stenosis and transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)
Travel-related Deep Vein Thrombosis
The link between cramped conditions and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has been recognised since World War II when people sitting for hours at a time in air raid shelters1 developed the condition.
