About this study

Warfarin has a narrow therapeutic window. Maintaining the patient's international normalized ratio (INR) within the predefined therapeutic range is one of the main challenges of warfarin treatment. This study was designed as a randomized controlled experiment. Twelve patients living in a distant place were assigned to the experimental group, and 12 patients living nearby and followed in the outpatient clinic were assigned to the control group. A Patient Information Form and the Adherence to Refills and Medications Scale were used to collect data.

Treatment and study plan

mobile applications with the name "Set My INR"

Other

The relevant software company assisted in developing the phone application. The language of the application created with the name "Set My INR" is Turkish. The application provided an opportunity for patients to share and communicate with their physician after having the INR value measured in a health institution near their place of residence before coming to the hospital

Primary outcomes

  1. Comparison of the Knowledge Levels of the Groups on the Use of Coumadin

    Time frame: It ranges from 6 months to 1 year

    To measure the knowledge level with "Patient Information Form" of patients using coumadin about the medication.

  2. Comparison of INR Control and Drug Compliance Values by Groups

    Time frame: It ranges from 6 months to 1 year

    Measuring medication compliance with "The Adherence to Refills and Medications Scale" of patients using coumadin.

    To compare the INR values of the patients using the phone application and followed face to face.
