No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of the investigators' study is to determine the clinical utility of a warfarin-dosing algorithm that incorporates genetic information (VKORC1 and CYP2C9 alleles) for adult patients initiating warfarin therapy.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Genotype-guided dose determination

Patients in both arms will be treated with warfarin. Those in the experimental group will have initial doses determined using an algorithm (from www.warfarindosing.org) incorporating genetic and clinical factors. Those in the control group will have doses determined using the same algorithm, but without including the genetic factors.

OTHER

Non-genotype guided warfarin dosing

Those in the control group will have doses determined using the same algorithm, but without including the genetic factors.
