Which Blood Test to do for getting INR

Question

Asked for Male, 24 Years

This is for my mother. She had a heart surgery recently and doctors have asked her to take blood test to get the INR value in blood. That INR value is to be informed to a cardiologist who will adjust the power for a medicine called Warfarin. Since moving is difficult for her at the moment, was looking for booking a test that would take sample from home. There a lot of blood test options, which of these test for INR in blood?
