2.1 Anticoag Safety in ED and Primary Care Part I

Season 2 - Anticoagulation is diving into the safety concerns of anticoagulants across a variety of healthcare environments.

This episode features an interview with an expert in direct oral anticoagulants, an Emergency Department physician, who shares some of his concerns along with proven tips for helping us all care safely. The conversation was compelling and rich enough that we had to break it into two episodes for our listeners.

 

Disclaimer: The first person narration of safety events is done to preserve the learning power of stories. The safety events discussed are fictional though the risks and safety concerns are very real. They are created from over decades from multiple home care, acute care, and long-term care institutions; and gathered from discussion with peers around the world who shared their stories to help others. In no way do these fictional safety events reflect the patient experience at my current employer. This podcast is purely a personal and private endeavor to enhance patient safety in some small way.
