Study Overview
Brief Summary
The study aims to evaluate the safety, usability and efficacy of the ReX-C - a novel medication management system - in measurement and improvement of adherence, in patients receiving oral anti-coagulation therapy for the treatment and prevention of thromboembolism.
Detailed Description
ReX-C is a mobile system intended to provide solid, oral medication on patient demand, according to a pre-programmed treatment protocol. ReX-C addresses poor adherence to medication therapy by providing real-time, reliable adherence data to caregivers and timely, personalized reminders to patients.
During the study, the use of ReX-C system to receive medications will be compared to Standard of Care. Patients' adherence will be evaluated for both methods.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Safety of ReX- C system, measured by incidences of pill overdose, pills malformation and adverse events related to the device use.
Time Frame: 18 weeks
incidences of pill overdose, pills malformation and adverse events related to the device use will be measured by a questionnaire.
Ease of use and acceptance of ReX-C system measured by a questionnaire
Time Frame: 18 weeks
Patients will be asked about their experience with ReX-C.
ReX-C capability to assess patient's adherence, measured by ReX-C record of missed/ delayed dose.
Time Frame: 18 weeks
Any event of delayed pill intake recorded by ReX-C should lead to a personal reminder to patient, who has to confirm the delay and act to take the missing dose.
Secondary Outcomes
- Adherence rate measured by patient's plasma drug level(18 weeks)
