Question 1 of 5
The emergency department (ED) nurse cares for a client receiving prescribed warfarin and reports dizziness, black tarry stools, and bloody gums. The international normalized ratio (INR) returns at 5 (0.9-1.2 seconds). The nurse anticipates the primary healthcare provider (PHCP) will prescribe which blood product?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: An INR of 5 indicates significant anticoagulation from warfarin, increasing bleeding risk (evidenced by tarry stools and bloody gums). FFP provides clotting factors to reverse warfarin’s effects. PRBCs address anemia, platelets address thrombocytopenia, and granulocytes treat infections, none of which are primary here.
