Description: A system, commonly called the INR, International Normalized Ratio, for reporting the results of blood coagulation (clotting) tests. PT/INR should be checked to ensure that the patient maintains the proper level of anticoagulation. The prothrombin time (PT or protime) is the actual time calculation, measured in seconds, for an anticoagulated sample of plasma or whole blood to clot after it is added to a thromboplastin reagent. This calculator is used to measure the INR.
The international normalized ratio (INR) is a standardized number that's figured out in the lab. If you take blood thinners, also called anti-clotting drugs or anticoagulants, it's especially important to check your INR. The INR is figured out using the results of the prothrombin time (PT) test, which measures the time it takes for your blood to clot. The INR is an international standard for the PT.
The INR is a ratio, so it's just a number, not a number tied to time or another value. Your results will vary according to your age, the medicines you take, and any health problems you have. In general, the higher the number, the longer it takes for your blood to clot.


SoftPedia Editor's Review

You’re definitely aware of Thrombosis, the clothing of blood inside blood vessels and that its consequences can be in some cases dramatic.
For this reason you might be taking blood thinners (anti-clotting drugs or anticoagulants) which help you remedy this problem. With this treatment, some standards and coefficients are required to monitor the coagulation levels of your blood during treatment stages.

The INR or International Normalized Ratio was developed to report the results of clotting tests. At the time it was implemented, the main purpose was to standardize PT (prothrombin time) because the test results were inconsistent, varying from one lab to the other.

To determine your INR ratio in a simple manner, INR Calculator by Dayyal Anand is designed. With it you can calculate the ratio in a few simple steps. All that is required is for you to enter the values for the ‘PT patient’ , ‘PT normal’ and ‘ISI’ then simply click ‘Calculate’. The resulting number is immediately displayed with all its decimals.

INR Calculator by Dayyal Anand is very easy to install and use. It’s a browser based application that requires almost no system resources to run which makes it a good solution for on the fly situations.

It does indeed help you out when you don’t have another quick way of obtaining the INR value but in order to be able to use it correctly, you need to know all the other values which apply to your case. The PT and ISI ( International sensitivity index) need to be accurate.

In closing, INR Calculator by Dayyal Anand is a handy and practical application that can definitely prove helpful when you want to obtain your INR value.
