There are a number of indications for oral anticoagulation therapy, most having to do with the use of mechanical devices to maintain a patient�s cardiac functioning. Therefore, it is essential that it be maintained on a consistent basis and without wide variances in overall INR. Because the INR concept is one that is directly related to how caregivers make determinations of the next option in a patient�s care, the efficacy of management by a nurse educator cannot truly be questioned.
