| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | Long acting coumarin derivatives can reach a more stable anticoagulant effect. Short acting coumarins are more easy to adjust. The half-life of warfarin lies between the half-life of acenocoumarol and phenprocoumon and can thereby possibly have the advantage of long acting coumarins as well as the advantage of short acting coumarins. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the local medical ethics committee |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Anticoagulant treatment |
| Intervention | 1. Treatment group: oral anticoagulant treatment with warfarin 2. Control group: oral anticoagulant treatment with phenprocoumon |
