Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed among warfarin patients in<br />Pakistan. Warfarin knowledge was evaluated using a self-developed and pre-validated instrument. Descriptive<br />and inferential statistics were applied to observe patients’ demographic features and to determine the correlation<br />among different PROs regarding the adverse events among warfarin patients. Spearman’s rank-order correlation<br />matrix was used to determine the association between knowledge mean scores and the PROs of adverse events.<br />Results: Among total 295 patients, females were more than males (n = 184, 62.4% and n = 111, 37.6%, respectively).<br />The mean knowledge score was 6.62 ± 2.68 and the correlation coefficients between the mean knowledge score<br />and the studied PROs were statistically significant. Conclusion: Statistically, a significant positive correlation<br />(P < 0.05) was observed between the mean knowledge score of the participants and the adverse events’ PROs.</p>}, number={03}, journal={Asian Journal of Pharmaceutics (AJP)}, author={Iqbal, Muhammad Shahid}, year={2020}, month={Sep.} }
