At RDS, we believe that patient safety is not just a slogan, but a responsibility.

Safe products mean fewer risks.

Quality systems mean greater trust.

A culture of vigilance means lives are protected.

This year’s WHO theme — “Patient safety from the start!” — reminds us that the journey to safe healthcare begins with every newborn and child. From the very first breath, patients deserve care that is safe, reliable, and respectful.

Let’s commit to strengthening quality, transparency, and accountability — because safety is the foundation of trust in healthcare.

Although AIDS-related deaths have fallen by almost 70% since their peak in 2004, on average, one person still dies due to the disease every minute.

On Friday’s World AIDS Day, UN Secretary-General António Guterres stresses: “We can — and must — end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030”.

Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites no longer respond to antimicrobial agents. As a result of drug resistance, antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents become ineffective and infections become difficult or impossible to treat, increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death.

The World AMR Awareness Week (WAAW) is a global campaign to raise awareness and understanding of AMR and promote best practices among One Health stakeholders to reduce the emergence and spread of drug-resistant infections. WAAW is celebrated from 18-24 November every year.

The theme for WAAW 2023 will remain "Preventing antimicrobial resistance together", as in 2022. AMR is a threat to humans, animals, plants and the environment. It affects us all.

That is why this year's theme calls for cross-sectoral collaboration to preserve the effectiveness of antimicrobials. To effectively reduce AMR, all sectors must use antimicrobials prudently and appropriately, take preventive measures to decrease the incidence of infections and follow good practices in disposal of antimicrobial contaminated waste.

3⃣ Reduced professional efficacy

The highest costs to clinics, other than staff, are reagents and consumables used in INR testing

Wet testing and dry strip testing both have a place in INR monitoring - recognising the appropriate test approach can make all the difference to clinic set-up and improve cost efficiencies

Wet tests provide lab-quality results quickly and easily - Hart Biologicals MC1, Thrombi-Stat, provides a cost effective solution to in-clinic testing

Dry strip testing devices can be utilised in community and domiciliary care settings where the additional cost per test (£3+) is offset and justified by the devices’ portability

If you’re interested in running a cost-effective anticoagulation clinic, get in touch to learn more about Thrombi-Stat and how we can support you
