In this scenario, a pharmacist in general practice carries out a new medicine review for a patient recently started on warfarin following mechanical heart valve replacement.

The student must review how the patient is getting on with the medicine, identify and address any problems, answer her questions, and give appropriate safety advice.

Please ensure that this scenario and mark scheme align with the most up-to-date guidelines from the UK NICE and the BNF when using it for your OSCE assessment.  

You will need a student pharmacist and an actor for this OSCE Scenario.
