ABSTRACT

A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 500 patients carriers of valve prosthesis who went to the outpatient department of the Cardiovascular Surgery Service from "Saturnino Lora Torres" Teaching Clinical Surgical Provincial Hospital from Santiago de Cuba was carried out during 2014 with the aim of evaluating their knowledge level on anticoagulation with sodium warfarin. The male sex (54,8 %), the age group 45-64 years (38,8 %) and those belonging to Santiago de Cuba and Holguín provinces (43,8 and 34,8 %, respectively) prevailed in the case material. Among the most remarkable characteristics there were: school level up to ninth grade (65,0 %), as well as those affected with mitral and aortic prosthesis almost in their totality. Although 40,2 % of the members of the series had more than 4 years of their surgical treatment, they didn't know the different alimentary, pharmacological interactions and time control criteria for prothrombine in the therapy of the oral anticoagulant.
