A nurse is caring for a 39-year-old female client on a medical-surgical floor. The interdisciplinary team has determined that the client is at a risk for the development of a pulmonary embolism and has therefore implemented prophylactic measures. The client is prescribed Warfarin therapy for its anticoagulant effects. Based on the nurse's understanding of the drug, the nurse confirms that the drug has reached a therapeutic level when which of the following coagulation results are obtained?The client's baseline coagulation studies:Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT): 30 secondsInternational normalized ratio (INR): 1.5Prothrombin time (PT): 10 secondsCassidy RhodyID: 112703Question 6Select one:1.PT 7 seconds, INR 2.52.PT 19 seconds, INR 2.03.PT 25 seconds, INR 2.14.aPTT 35 seconds, INR 3.0

A 52-year-old female presents to the emergency room with swelling over her right calf for the past 3 days. Her right calf is warm, erythematous, and tender to palpation. A duplex is performed and shows a deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This is her first DVT. She is started on warfarin and told that she must continue it for the next 3 months. What effect does warfarin have on the coagulation panel?Question 6Answera.Increases bleeding timeb.Increases prothrombin timec.Decreases partial thromboplastin timed.Increases partial thromboplastin timee.Decreases prothrombin time

Select the correct statements. (Note that there may be more than one correct statement.)Group of answer choicesHeparin and warfarin effectively inhibit platelet aggregation.Heparin cannot be absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and therefore it is an injectable anticoagulant.Thrombolytic substances dissolve existing blood clots but cannot prevent their formation.One of the reasons Warfarin should not be administered in pregnancy is that it crosses the placenta and therefore may cause cerebral haemorrhage in the fetus during delivery.
