Abstract:
Warfarin is one of the most commonly used oral anticoagulants worldwide and is highly efficacious for the treatment and prevention of thromboembolic disorders. However, due to its narrow therapeutic index and large interindividual variability, it remains a challenging drug to prescribe. Genetic factors (CYP2C9 and VKORCI), together with clinical factors (age and body weight), account for up to 60% of warfarin dose variance but the remaining ~40% variability remains unexplained. A polymorphism rs2108622 in CYP4F2, a vitamin K oxidase, has previously been associated with increased warfarin stabl

Abstract:
Warfarin is a challenging drug to dose accurately, especially during the initiation phase because of its narrow therapeutic range and large inter-individual variability. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to investigate the use of pharmacogenetics and clinical data to improve warfarin therapy. Genetic variants in cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1) are known to influence warfarin dose. Therefore we developed a pharmacogenetic dosing algorithm to predict warfarin stable dose prospectively in a British population based on 456 patients who started warfarin in

The work presented in this dissertation focuses on two important medication-related problems in older adults, that is, untreated indication and drug-drug interactions, specifically with respect to a high-risk medication such as warfarin. Warfarin is a challenge to use in clinical practice due to its narrow therapeutic index, variability in dose-response and its interactions with numerous foods and drugs.

Abstract:
Warfarin is one of the most widely used anticoagulants in the world. Treatment is complicated by a large inter-individual variation in the dose needed to reach adequate levels of anticoagulation i.e. INR 2.0 – 3.0. The objective of this thesis was to evaluate which factors, mainly genetic but also non-genetic, that affect the response to warfarin in terms of required maintenance dose, efficacy and safety with special focus on warfarin dose prediction. Through candidate gene and genome-wide studies, we have shown that the genes CYP2C9 and VKORC1 are the major determinants of warfarin maintenanc

People at risk for blood clots are often treated with anticoagulants, warfarin is such an anticoagulant.

Abstract:
Class of 2010 Abstract<br>OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that an increase in INR is associated with a hemorrhagic event in patients taking the oral anticoagulant warfarin. METHODS: A retrospective review of data from 18 patients previously stable on warfarin therapy with an elevation in INR at the time of a hemorrhagic event. Patients were receiving warfarin treatment in the anticoagulation clinic at the Southern Arizona VA Healthcare system from April 2008 to December 2009. Primary outcome measures included a comparison of INR, warfarin dose, and hematocrit at basel

Class of 2013 Abstract<br>Specific Aims: The purpose of this study is to identify a postoperative warfarin re-initiation protocol used most commonly by certified anticoagulation providers. Our main hypothesis is that certified Anticoagulation providers use a postoperative warfarin re-initiation strategy based upon clinical experience/knowledge as opposed to a guideline-based approach. Methods: The Anticoagulation Forum website will be used to select the anticoagulation providers to interview via telephone. The selection process will be as follows: an excel spreadsheet will be created separa

Abstract:
Treament with oral anticoagulation is highly effective in reducing the burden of thromboembolic complications in several clinical conditions. The number of patients receiving oral anticoagulation is growing steadily. InSwedenabout 1.5 percent of the population receives treatment. Although the treatment is highly effective in preventing thromboembolic complications, it is also associated with a substantial increase in the risk of bleeding. In clinical practice every physician has to balance the potential benefit of treatment against the risk of bleeding complications in the individual patient.
