The client has been inpatient for eight days and has now developed a deep vein thrombosis to the left lower extremity. The health care provider has placed orders to start anticoagulation therapy. While preparing the heparin drip, the nurse receives new lab results showing an international normalized ratio (INR) of 3.9. What should be the nurse’s priority action in this scenario?
