Coumadin • No one dose of Coumadin is right for everyone • No one dose of Coumadin will always be right for the same person • Effect monitored by the clotting time (PT, INR, ProTime)
Clotting Times Pro-Time: Blood is sent to the lab How many seconds does it take to make a clot (normal might be 10 seconds) INR (<strong>International</strong> normalized ratio) Patient’s Pro-Time (e.g. 20 secs) divided by the normal Pro-Time (10 secs). So the INR might be 2 INR 3 too much of an effect INR >4 May be dangerous, INR >5 mayneedtogototheER
