The System >

Data Entry and Presentation

Designed to integrate with numerous systems dabl Anticoagulant will automatically upload patient information and blood results and present the information in a very user-friendly format for both patient and medical team. View and edit formats incorporate timesaving features, which are essential for busy clinics. It is fast and efficient in producing results for medical teams whilst providing a secure and easily traceable patient record.

Demographics and Quick Search Facility

dabl Anticoagulant provides the demographic details of each patient. This is combined with a very quick method of locating a patient on the system.

INR and Dosage

dabl Anticoagulant uses a colour plot and histogram of the amount of anticoagulant prescribed against the test being used to monitor treatment (INR, PTT) so that it will be evident at a glance as to how stable or unstable a patient may be at any time. This also allows for the entire record of the patient to be summarised for a quick review of progress since initiation of anticoagulant treatment. Important events such as bleeding, bruising or binge drinking are highlighted in a simple but very effective way.

Choice of Algorithms

dabl Anticoagulant allows clinics to choose from a selection of algorithms to determine the parameters for dosing and patient recall periods. All algorithms are based on published evidence.

Warning Features

In the event of the current result showing a reading above certain criteria, or a significant increase on the previous reading the system will alert the user. When the INR or PTT is so high as to constitute a danger of bleeding the system will immediately give notice of this occurrence.

Letter Generating Facility

Another special feature, with considerable time saving implications, is an automatic letter facility for generating letters to the patient, to family practitioners and other sources. Letters contain a graphic presentation of the anticoagulant dosage plotted against the INR or PTT, the dose of anticoagulant recommended based on the latest test, the date of the next appointment and a list of drugs to be avoided and other safety information required when on anticoagulants. The system allows the letters to be sent by post, fax or e-mail to the patient and to the family doctor.

Holistic Management

As a percentage of patients on anticoagulant treatment are patients with cardiovascular disease, dabl Anticoagulant can be used simultaneously with dabl Cardiovascular or with any of the other dabl modules.

Management Reporting

A variety of reports are available to assist the efficient management of the clinic and provide important clinical information.
