Following our 1st Audit cycle in January 2019, we introduced a proforma for documentation of anticoagulant initiation at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH), King’s Lynn. A proforma consisting of six criteria was used in patients commenced on anticoagulation therapy to standardise the practice of prescribing. These six criteria consisted of coagulation profile, creatinine clearance, bridging therapy-if indicated, counselling before the start of therapy, referral to an anticoagulation clinic and finally the duration of therapy. The aim of this audit is to assess the effectiveness of utilising a standardised proforma in patients commenced on anticoagulation therapy.
