	INR Self Monitoring The AntiCoagulation Self-Monitoring Alliance (ACSMA) is campaigning with the specific objective of achieving greater access via prescription to INR self-monitoring technology for patients receiving warfarin therapy. Less that 2% of all patients on Warfarin currently benefit from home testing.
	Pulse Oximetry CHF is campaigning for the introduction of Pulse Oximetry screening for all newborn babies in the UK. The test which measures the oxygen levels in the blood and evidence shows it is an effective test and we’d like to see it rolled out nationally.
	Think HEART The Think HEART campaign aims to empower and inform parents, as well as better educate medical professionals about the key early signs of a possible heart problem in children.
	Safe & Sustanable: Children’s Heartcare Standards Children’s Heart Federation has been actively campaigning for improvements to the UK heart care system for many years, particularly since the Bristol Baby Tragedy of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, when it became shockingly clear that an established surgical centre had covered up very poor surgical results for a long time.
