Organizations aim to accelerate the use of antithrombotic clinical evidence in patient care
MIAMI & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OpenEvidence and the Anticoagulation Forum (AC Forum) today announced a strategic partnership to provide antithrombotic guidance and tools that support decision-making in clinical practice. By combining the AC Forum’s leadership in education and multidisciplinary clinical guidance with OpenEvidence’s advanced artificial intelligence platform, clinicians will gain access to timely and practical evidence in antithrombotic therapy.
“Clinicians are increasingly turning to AI to navigate the growing complexity of medical evidence,” said Travis Zack, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer at OpenEvidence. “Antithrombotic therapy touches nearly every area of medicine, and the Anticoagulation Forum has long been a trusted voice in this space. We are proud to partner with AC Forum to bring their expertise into everyday workflows, helping clinicians deliver safer, more effective care.”
Antithrombotic medications remain a leading cause of preventable medication-related harm. Despite strong evidence and available tools, best practices remain inconsistent. Through this collaboration, OpenEvidence users will gain access to the AC Forum’s curated, evidence-based resources, including practical tools and concise clinical guidance, to support decision making across complex cases.
“Antithrombotic therapy is one of the most effective, and also one of the highest-risk areas in medicine, requiring clinicians to balance prevention of thrombosis with the risk of bleeding in real time,” said Geoff Barnes, MD, MSc, President of the AC Forum. “This partnership brings trusted, evidence-based guidance directly into clinical workflows through AI, helping clinicians make informed decisions with greater confidence, consistency, and efficiency. It represents an important step toward advancing antithrombotic stewardship from concept to standard of care.”
The collaboration will also focus on identifying common clinical questions and knowledge gaps based on real-world use of the OpenEvidence platform. These insights will inform the development of targeted, practical resources from AC Forum to better support clinical decision making and improve antithrombotic care.
