Which test is used to monitor heparin therapy?

PTT
PT
MONA
AEIOU

The correct answer is: PTT

The options B, C, and D are incorrect. The test used to monitor heparin therapy is PTT (partial thromboplastin time), which measures the time it takes for blood to clot. Options B (PT - prothrombin time) is used to monitor Warfarin (coumadin) therapy. Option C (MONA) and D (AEIOU) are not tests, but rather acronyms used in emergency medicine to remember a sequence of interventions for a patient presenting with chest pain and difficulty breathing. It stands for Morphine, Oxygen, Nitroglycerin, and Aspirin (MONA) or Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Delirium (AEIOU).
