Prothrombin and coagulation factor VII procoagulant activities (FIIc and FVIIc) were expressed as a percentage of normal pooled reference plasma. Plasma acenocoumarol concentrations were measured shortly before intake of the new medication and ranged between 0.03 and 0.09 mg/L. Between K1 and MK-7 treatment there was a 2-week wash-out period.
