Abstract

Introduction: All patients with HEART VALVE repair must use WARFARIN as an ANTICOAGULANT drug for a long time to prevent for ming and expanding clots.
Objective: to control use of WARFARIN in patients with heart vulve repair.
Method: searching the internet and study other articles.
Description: in patients with HEART VALVE repair, blood tends to clot when faced by external particles, therefore, the blood coagulation system should be weakened and clot formation should be stopped and prevented from expandeding by prescribing adequate WARFARIN. A set of test concerning blood and coagulants should be done as a base before starting any type of ANTICOAGULANT therapy, e.g. platelet count, and hematocrit, INR, PT tests. WARFARIN act and its ANTICOAGULANT effect should be measured by INR, PT tests. The normal amount of INR is 1-1.5 which should be kept to 2-3.5 to obtain the desired condition. Hemorrhage is probable if INR increased to 4-5. It should be noted that certain drugs and foods increase or decrease INR,e.g. antiacids, barbiturates, and foods rich with vitamin k (greens) and liver reduce INR, while aspirin,heparin and alcohol increase it. These patients should carry a card specifying the name of the ANTICOAGULANT drug and the dosage. In a good recovery, WARFARIN should be taken for 3-6 months. An in-patient needs to do theINR, pt tests daily and after discharging the tests done weekly or monthly as directed by a physician.
The dosage for WARFARIN will be decided according to the test result.
Conclusion: WARFARIN is of great importance to patients with HEART VALVE repair, thus training and instructing the patients on how to use it, and how to do INR, pt test on time can successfully help in recovering the HEART VALVE.
