DAWN AC IS A COMPREHENSIVE ANTICOAGULATION THERAPY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. A PROVEN DOSE AND TEST INTERVAL ALGORITHM PROVIDES CONSISTENT TREATMENT CONTROL.

BENEFITS

saves doctor time by enabling the devolvement of the bulk of therapy management from doctors to other appropriate healthcare professionals. The doctors may then concentrate on the difficult cases.
helps avoid hospitalisations by helping to methodically identify the patients who are at risk, from thrombo-embolic and bleeding events. Resources can then be suitably directed to help eliminate such events.
enables consistent and standardised practice to help eliminate any possible error when managing patients on this dangerous drug.
alert warnings for interacting drugs to increase vigilance on patient monitoring.
enables the handling of the ever increasing numbers of patients (currently increasing at 20-30% pa)
gives complete and readily available documentation of all anticoagulation records
