a subcutaneous injection of heparin?
A. Heart rate
B. Urinary output
C. Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)
D. Prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR)
C. Activated partial thromboplastin time, commonly referred to as aPTT

valuable information but not a parameter measured for heparin therapy. (D) is
evaluated during anticoagulation therapy using sodium warfarin (Coumadin).
