Title: Evaluation of Self-monitoring of Oral antiCoagulant therApy by the PatiEnts
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether self-management of oral anticoagulation therapy with warfarin has an effect on patient's quality of life following a specific training program led by pharmacists.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Enrolled at Minneapolis VAMC
* Type 1 or 2 diabetes
* Blood pressure at screening visit \> 140mmHg systolic or \> 90mmHg diastolic OR HgbA1C at screening visit \> 9.0% OR LDL at screening visit \> 100mg/dL

Exclusion Criteria:

* Primary care provider unwilling to have participant included in study
* Life expectancy \< 1 year
* Unable to give consent
* Severe mental health condition
* pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patient aged 18 years and over followed at the Montreal Heart Institute's Anticoagulation clinic
* Warfarin treatment planned for at least 4 months after inclusion in the study
* Warfarin treatment initiated for at least 6 months
* Last 2 INRs between 1.5 and 4 if target INR is between 2 and 3
* Last 2 INRS between 2 and 4 if target INR is between 2.5 and 3.5
* Provide a signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient unable to understand (spoken and written) French or English
* Patient refuses or is unable to attend the required training sessions
* Targeted INR other than 2 to 3 or 2.5 to 3.5
* Handicap or physical limitation compromising the patient's ability to initiate self-monitoring in the absence of a proxy helper
* Moderate to severe cognitive impairment or important comprehension problems
* Active neoplasm
* Concurrent chemotherapy
* Hypercoagulable conditions
* Life expectancy of less than 1 year documented in the medical chart
* Inclusion (at time of inclusion or 30 days prior to inclusion) in another research project involving a drug
* Patient anticoagulated with nicoumalone
* Pregnancy or breastfeeding
* Active bleeding (except for menses)
* Recent major bleeding (less than 3 months before inclusion)
* Stroke, acute coronary syndrome, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass graft, cardiac valve replacement, deep veinous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism in the 3 months prior to inclusion
* Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigators, of the treating physician or of the healthcare professionals working at the anticoagulation clinic could make self-management by the patient impossible
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* HIV-1 infected
* Current severe CDC Category B AIDS-defining illness (with the exception of a single episode of bacterial sepsis or a single episode of zoster), OR history of a severe CDC Category B or C AIDS-defining illness, OR one CD4 count less than 350 cells/mm3 within 6 months prior to study entry
* Antiretroviral naive. A participant who previously received 6 weeks or less of post-exposure prophylaxis or short course therapy for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission are not excluded. More information on this criterion can be found in the protocol.
* Willing to use acceptable forms of contraception
* Parent or guardian willing to provide informed consent, if applicable

Exclusion Criteria:

* Current newly diagnosed CDC Category C AIDS-defining opportunistic infection or condition requiring acute therapy at the time of study entry. More information on this criterion can be found in the protocol.
* Therapy with agents with significant systemic myelosuppressive, neurotoxic, pancreatotoxic, hepatotoxic, or cytotoxic potential within 30 days prior to study entry
* Require certain medications
* Current alcohol or substance abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the study
* Uncontrolled diarrhea (more than 6 stools per day for 7 consecutive days) within 30 days prior to study entry
* Diagnosis of or suspected acute hepatitis within 30 days prior to study entry
* Signs or symptoms of bilateral peripheral neuropathy of Grade 2 or greater at screening
* Inability to tolerate oral medication
* Any other clinical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the study
* In the first trimester of pregnancy
D: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Overall average (after 2 visits) systolic ≥180 OR diastolic ≥110 mmHg in undiagnosed patients without macrovascular target organ damage, diabetes or chronic kidney disease
2. Overall average (after 2 visits) systolic ≥140 OR diastolic ≥90 for patients with undiagnosed hypertension with macrovascular target organ damage (coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, DM)
3. In patients with diagnosed hypertension, systolic ≥140 (≥ 130 with DM or CKD) OR diastolic ≥90, (≥ 80 with DM or CKD)
4. Overall average (after 5 visits, for those without macrovascular target organ damage, DM, or CKD and without an existing hypertension diagnosis) systolic ≥140 OR diastolic ≥90 mmHg
5. Overall average (after 7 days of twice-daily home blood pressure monitoring , for those without macrovascular target organ damage, DM, or CKD and without an existing hypertension diagnosis) systolic ≥135 OR diastolic ≥85

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with hypertensive urgency or emergency:

  * Urgency: SBP ≥ 180 mm Hg or DBP ≥ 120 mm Hg with no acute signs of end-organ damage
* Unwilling to participate/sign consent form
* Pregnancy
