Wouldn’t it make sense for individuals to be more responsible for their own anticoagulation management through Self-Testing & Monitoring?

C. Heneghan writes: "Our analysis shows that self-testing and self-management are a safe choice for appropriate patients of all ages" (Lancet, 2012; 379: 332-334).

“You are a safer navigator with your own boat, which you know inside and out, than a doctor who is trained to navigate hundreds of boats. Doctors will never be “on board” and will never know as many details as the patient knows about him/herself. Self management therefore, enables the patient to become a health care collaborator on his/her own therapy” J. Michael Hasenkam MD DMSc (World Congress of Cardiology 2006, Barcelona)
