Effect of Administration of Phenindione on Blood Levels of Prothrombin, Autoprothrombin I and Autoprothrombin II

Shirley A. Johnson 1, M. June Caldwell 1, and Edward McCall Priest 1

1 From the Department of Laboratories and Division of Cardiology, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, Michigan

Phenindione was administered to 14 patients in the Cardiology Division. Prothrombin, autoprothrombin I and autoprothrombin II determinations were carried out on plasma and serum samples drawn before administration of the drug, during and following administration. The prothrombin, autoprothrombin I and II all fell in concentration simultaneously. Prothrombin and autoprothrombin I recovered at the same rate, while autoprothrombin II returned to the original concentration much later. The response of the three components to administration of vitamin K1 was also observed.
