cord-348172-q3zcn5pf	Poli, Daniela	Managing anticoagulation in the COVID-19 era between lockdown and reopening phases	2020-06-08		.txt	text/plain	1324	76	42	The recent spreadout of the COVID-19 pandemic requires a re-organization of Anticoagulation Clinics to prevent person-to-person viral diffusion and continue to offer the highest possible quality of assistance to patients. In this paper, based on the Italian Federation of Anticoagulation Clinics statements, we offer some advice aimed at improving patient care during COVID-19 pandemic, with particular regard to the lockdown and reopening periods. Anticoagulation Clinics (ACs) routinely manage thousands of patients taking anticoagulants, either vitamin K antagonists (VKAs), direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), or parenteral drugs. ACs are pivotal in anticoagulation management, providing site visits for patients, remote monitoring, and integration with local health facilities [2] .The recent spreadout of the COVID-19 pandemic requires a re-organization also of ACs, to prevent person-to-person diffusion. In this phase, we recommend that all ACs actively follow up anticoagulated patients through laboratory and clinical controls.	./cache/cord-348172-q3zcn5pf.txt	./txt/cord-348172-q3zcn5pf.txt
