Description
The Anticoagulation Tracking calculator is designed to help clinicians begin anticoagulant therapy for patients by estimating the necessary dosage. The tool can also be used to track a patient's therapy over an extended period of time. Due to its robust design, Anticoagulation Tracking has a separate tab in the HTB within TouchWorks.
Data Fields
The following table explain each data field and it's functionality.

INR | A free text field to document INR value | Yes, the value in this field will be carried forward | Yes, it is a required field. |
INR Date | A date field | No, this field will not carry forward | Yes |
Goal INR | INR Value ranges that are considered healthy for the patient | Yes | Yes |
INR Relative to Range | Where the patient's INR falls in comparison to their Goal INR | No | Yes |
Indication of Therapy | Why the patient is receiving therapy | Yes | No |
Indication Comments | Free text field for comments regarding therapy. Limit - 250 characters | Yes | No |
INR Complications | Any complications the patient experienced | Yes? | no? |
