After discussing his situation with his family, you discovered that he has dementia (he forgets things) and took his dose of heparin four times and his aPTT is 5 times higher than the required value. The practice that should be undertaken to this man is:

Give 12 units of protamine sulfate

Give vitamin K with an amount of 1 mg for every 10 units of heparin

Give aspirin 100 mg as soon as possible

Watch the man until the effect of heparin vanishes because there’s no antidote that can offset heparin’s mechanism
