ClotCare

ClotCare is an online health information resource focused on anticoagulant and antithrombotic therapies and the prevention and treatment of blood clots. Founded in 2000 by Henry I. Bussey, Pharm.D., and his daughter, Marie Bussey, it brings together patient-oriented information and expert insight from an editorial board of specialists in anticoagulation. Its mission is to help patients and healthcare providers make informed use of these therapies and support communication between patients and caregivers.

The site covers deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, venous thromboembolism, atrial fibrillation, heart attack, stroke, transient ischemic attack, bleeding complications, and vascular procedures. It also explains medicines and treatments such as warfarin (Coumadin), heparin, Lovenox, aspirin, Plavix, anticoagulants, and antiplatelet drugs, along with PT-INR testing and treatment management. Resources include articles and postings for patients and clinicians, DVT and PE stories, useful links, continuing education opportunities, training programs, and email updates. ClotCare provides educational information only; it is intended to complement, not replace, professional medical advice.
