- The objectives of this health technology assessment were to evaluate the accuracy, and clinical and cost-effectiveness of point-of-care (POC) international normalized ratio (INR) devices compared with standard lab testing, and between POC INR devices. A systematic review was performed to evaluate the accuracy and clinical effectiveness of POC INR.
