Where can i find a table that converts inr alues to quick test values?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It Shouldn't Exist: The beauty of an inr is that it is independent of the specific lab and reagent used for the test. A quick test (tf plasma activation) varies within the same patient from lab to lab, so each lab obtains their own "control correction factor" to generate inrs. There is no single conversion value for this reason. You need the control values from your specific lab.
