Abstract

Anticoagulant is a class of medication that saves lives while carries an intrinsic risk of harm.

Recently telemedicine is not a brand-new method of patient care, yet, telemedicine utilization has increased dramatically during the last year to comply with the curfew that most cities of the world had to apply to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
