Abstract
The 500 IU of PCC is likely to be optimal dose of PCC for emergent reversal of INR in patients requiring rapid correction of INR below 5.0, but to be inadequate dose in patients with INR of 5.0 or more. PCC administration with vitamin K may finish reversing INR rapidly within 10 min and keep the reversed INR values for 12-24 h.
