Anticoagulant Toolkit
Reducing Adverse Drug Events & Potential Adverse Drug Events with Unfractionated Heparin, Low Molecular Weight Heparins and Warfarin

Developed by Purdue University PharmaTAP in collaboration with the Indiana Patient Safety Center (IPSC), Indiana Hospital Association (IHA) and VHA Central

PharmaTAP provided a tool kit of information designed to assist hospitals with meeting the Joint Commission National Patient Safety Goal 3E expectations to reduce the likelihood of patient harm associated with the use of anticoagulant therapy. The tool kit is designed to offer information and solutions to improve anticoagulant practices in inpatient and outpatient settings. Safe practice recommendations, strategies for implementing change, measurement tools, and example resource materials such as project charter, PDSA worksheets, checklists, drug protocols, order forms, flow sheets, project plans, etc. are included.
