Abstract
Low-dose INR self-management is a promising tool to achieve low hemorrhagic complications without increasing the risk of thromboembolic complications. INR self-management is applicable for all patients in whom permanent anticoagulation therapy is indicated. Even INR values below 3.5 can bear the risk of bleeding complications.
