The association of high-normal international-normalized-ratio (INR) with mortality in patients referred for coronary angiography. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 AimsThe international-normalized-ratio (INR) is typically used to monitor patients on warfarin or related oral anticoagulant therapy. The aim of our study was to investigate the association of the INR with mortality in coronary artery disease (CAD ...

Clinical evaluation of whole blood prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR) using a Laser Speckle Rheology sensor [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Prothrombin time (PT) and the associated international normalized ratio (INR) are routinely tested to assess the risk of bleeding or thrombosis and to monitor response to anticoagulant therapy in patients.

External quality assessment of point-of-care International Normalized Ratio (INR) testing in Europe [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2012 Point-of-care testing (POCT) of prothrombin time, expressed as International Normalized Ratio (INR), is widely used to monitor patients in oral anticoagulation treatment. Guidelines recommend that POCT users should participate in an external quality assessment (EQA) scheme whenever available.

Elevated INR in a COVID-19 patient after concomitant administration of azvudine and anticoagulants
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023 Background: Azvudine (FNC) is a promising treatment candidate for managing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, drug interactions with azvudine have been poorly studied, especially with no reported cases of azvudine with anticoagulants such as ...

The International Normalized Ratio (INR) in the MELD Score: Problems and Solutions [PDF]
American Journal of Transplantation, 2010 The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score is widely used to prioritize patients for liver transplantation. One of the pitfalls of the MELD score is the interlaboratory variability in all three components of the score (INR, bilirubin, creatinine).

Role of POC INR in the early stage of diagnosis of coagulopathy
Practical Laboratory Medicine, 2021 Background: Acute bleeding requires fast and targeted therapy. Therefore, knowledge of the patient's potential to form a clot is crucial. Point-of-care testing (POCT) provides fast and reliable information on coagulation.

Clinical utilization of the international normalized ratio (INR) [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, 2000 The prothrombin time (PT) is one of the most important laboratory tests to determine the functionality of the blood coagulation system. It is used in patient care to diagnose diseases of coagulation, assess the risk of bleeding in patients undergoing operative procedures, monitor patients being treated with oral anticoagulant (coumadin) therapy, and ...

Standardization of Prothrombin Time/International Normalized Ratio (PT/INR) [PDF]
International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, 2020 AbstractThe prothrombin time (PT) represents the most commonly used coagulation test in clinical laboratories. The PT is mathematically converted to the international normalized ratio (INR) for use in monitoring anticoagulant therapy with vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin in order to provide test results that are adjusted for thromboplastin and ...
