Silent ischaemia in asymptomatic 'healthy' individuals with coronary risk factors.

abstract：AIMS:In mechanical heart valve recipients, low-dose international normalized ratio (INR) self-management of oral anticoagulants can reduce the risk of developing thrombo-embolic events and improve long-term survival compared with INR control by a general practitioner. Here, we present data on the safety of low-dose INR...
