Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective comparison of clinician dosing and a pharmacogenetic algorithm in diagnosed patients requiring warfarin therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Diagnosed patients with atrial fibrillation, pulmonary embolism, or deep venous thrombosis requiring warfarin therapy will be consented and a tube of blood for DNA analysis will be drawn. The clinician dosing group will not be eligible to obtain the pharmacogenetic results and the algorithm group will have their warfarin pharmacogenetic SNPs performed and integrated into the algorithm and the warfarin dose will be calculated. Outcomes of patients receiving both methods will be gathered and statistically analyzed.

Clinician dosing of warfarin

Warfarin dose based on clinician dosing without the use of warfarin pharmacogenetics

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Warfarin Dose based on pharmacogenetics

Intervention Type GENETIC

Warfarin dose adjustment will be based on the standard clinician dosing compared to the use of the pharmacogenetic base algorithm
