Background: The number of patients seen at the RIPAS Hospital Anticoagulation Clinic (ACC) has increased cumulatively over the years. With patient numbers increasing dramatically, a study of the anticoagulant service has become necessary to determine the clinic's performance.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to gather descriptive data on the ACC and to determine the percentage of patients' international normalised ratio (INR) results within target, below target and above target at the ACC.
