Quick answer
The Prothrombin Time with INR Test measures how long it takes blood plasma to clot through the extrinsic clotting pathway and converts that time into a standardized value called the INR. Prothrombin time alone can vary between laboratories, while the INR adjusts for the testing reagent so results can be compared. The test is used to evaluate clotting function and to monitor certain anticoagulant therapies when prescribed by a healthcare provider.
What this test measures
Clotting is a stepwise process involving multiple proteins called factors. Prothrombin time reflects the activity of several of these factors, including factors II, V, VII, and X, along with fibrinogen. The laboratory measures the time for clot formation and then calculates the INR using the reagent's international sensitivity index and a mean normal prothrombin time, giving a standardized result.
The test requires a blood sample, and results are reported as the prothrombin time in seconds and the INR as a unitless number. When a broader clotting evaluation is needed, an activated partial thromboplastin time or fibrinogen level may be ordered at the same time. Reference ranges and target ranges depend on the reason for testing.
People may order this test when a healthcare provider is monitoring anticoagulant therapy, evaluating unexpected bleeding or bruising, or assessing liver-related clotting function. It is also used before some procedures. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret the result and manage any therapy adjustments; this test does not provide dosing guidance.
