Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess whether complications of treatment with vitamine K antagonists will decrease when vitamine K is given. To assess to optimal dosage of vitamine K for supplementation.;Secondary Objective: The possible influence of genetic polymorphisms of enzymes CYP2C9 and VKORC1 on the effect of vitamine K supplementation.;Primary end point(s): 1. The number of complications of treatment with vitamin K antagonists per patiëntyear in the group with vitamin K suppletion compared with the placebogroup. 2. The influence of genetic polymorphism of both CYP2C9 and VKORC1 on the effect of vitamin K suppletion while being treated with vitamin K antagonists.
