BHVS is delighted to have collaborated with the British Cardiovascular Society (BCS), Society for Cardiothoracic Surgery (SCTS), British Congenital Cardiac Association (BCCA), British Society of Echocardiography (BSE) and the Primary Care Cardiovascular Society (PCCS) to produce a Joint Statement on the topic of anticoagulation in patients with mechanical heart valves, following the National Patient Safety Alert issued last month by NHS England.
