The paper deals with the estimation (using the Monte Carlo method) of a confidence interval for an individual patient's International Normalized Ratio (INR) of 3.3. The results show that this confidence interval ranges from an INR of 2.5 to 4.2 and is of about the same size as the therapeutic range.
