Well that would be awesome to monitor anticoagulation.
- schrofer 12y agoyes indeed, this opens up new possibilities for monitoring what's going on in our bodies. But we would need more knowledge / education so we don't jump to conclusions when a value out of bounds.
- roma1n 12y agoSure, but that particular ship sailed a long time ago. Most patients track their INR from the lab and simply ask when it swings too much.
- enziobodoni 12y agoWe already monitor all sorts of anticoagulation. Fingerstick samples are particularly bad for this (even though there are current point of care devices that do this).
