This website contains UW Medicine recommendations, guidelines, and protocols for treating and preventing venous and arterial thrombosis, and the clinical use of antithrombotic agents in ambulatory and inpatient settings.

The UW Medicine Department of Pharmacy operates UW Medicine Anticoagulation Services and collaborates with multidisciplinary specialties and providers across UW Medicine to develop and disseminate guidelines and coordinate the usage of antithrombotic agents across the UW Medicine enterprise.

UW Medicine Anticoagulation Services also provides management of anticoagulant therapy in pharmacist-managed anticoagulation clinics at the University of Washington Medical Center (UWMC), Fred Hutch Cancer Center (FHCC), and Harborview Medical Center (HMC).  Pharmacist providers in these clinics are involved in clinical practice, training and education, and research activities consistent with the mission of UW Medicine and the Department of Pharmacy.

“The goals of pharmacist-managed anticoagulation services include treatment and prevention of thromboembolic disease and minimization of complications of antithrombotic therapy.”
