Introduction
A new class of lipid lowering agent Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 inhibitors (PCSK9) was launched in 2015 for the treatment of heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) in combination with statin therapy. There a... Read More about A multi-methods study of the factors influencing the adoption of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin-type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors.

The use of a virtual patient to simulate a pharmacist-patient anticoagulation consultation: a mixed methods evaluation (2020)
Thesis
Richardson, C. L. (2020). The use of a virtual patient to simulate a pharmacist-patient anticoagulation consultation: a mixed methods evaluation. (Thesis). Keele University

Introduction
Patients commencing new medications, particularly those that are high risk such as non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOACs), require counselling to ensure safe, effective and empowering use of the medicine. Pharmacists are well placed... Read More about The use of a virtual patient to simulate a pharmacist-patient anticoagulation consultation: a mixed methods evaluation.
