8.7 Setting a Target Range For Your INR Results
An INR target range may be set to alert the user when the INR results are
out of range.
If results fall outside the target range, or if results fall within
the target range but are not consistent with the patient's
current state of health (e.g. they have symptoms such
as bleeding or bruising) follow your usual procedures for
taking corrective action.
Each physician should establish expected values for his or
her patient population or individual patients. Differences in
reagents, instruments and pre-analytical variables can affect
prothrombin time results. These factors should be considered
when comparing different prothrombin time test methods.
For the self-testing user, always contact your health care
provider before setting an INR target range. Follow your health
care provider's instructions for the correct actions to take.
