What is non-anticoagulated patients?
People who are not taking anticoagulants may be at an increased risk of developing blood clots if they have certain medical conditions, such as:
* Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
* Pulmonary embolism (PE)
* Atrial fibrillation (AFib)
* ** Heart valve replacement
* History of blood clots
If you are not taking anticoagulants and you have any of these medical conditions, it is important to talk to your doctor about your risk of blood clots and whether or not you need to start taking anticoagulant medication.
