International normalized ratio (INR): 0.8-1.1. The warfarin (Coumadin) dose is changed so that the prothrombin time is longer than normal (by about 1.5 to 2.5 times the normal value or INR values 2 to 3).Prothrombin times are also kept at longer times for people with artificial heart valves, because these valves have a high chance of causing clots to form. PT test may also be called an INR test. INR (international normalized ratio) stands for a way of standardizing the results of prothrombin time tests, no matter the testing method.
INR stands for international normalized ratio. The INR provides some information about a personâs bloodâs tendency to clot (which is often described as how âthinâ or âthickâ their blood is). The INR comes from the conversion of another value, the prothrombin time (PT).Prothrombin time is the time it takes for blood to clot in a test tube. A high or low PT can suggest bleeding or clotting tendencies. Most often, the PT is checked to monitor a personâs response to blood thinners such as warfarin (Coumadin). normal INR is approximately 1.0. People taking the blood thinner warfarin typically have a target INR of 2.0 to 3.0. People with an INR higher than the normal range who arenât taking warfarin may have a medical condition that needs further evaluation. A low INR is rarely significant.
