Question 5 of 5
A nurse is assessing the therapeutic International Normalized Ratio (INR) range for a patient receiving Warfarin. Which INR range below is therapeutic?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: INR 2.0–3.0 is the standard therapeutic range for warfarin in conditions like atrial fibrillation or DVT, balancing clot prevention and bleeding risk. 4.0–5.0 and 3.0–4.9 risk bleeding; 1.0–2.0 is subtherapeutic, risking clots. 2.0–3.0 aligns with clinical guidelines.
