What is the Treatment for Factor V Leiden ? Most people with Factor V Leiden do not form abnormal clots and require no treatment. If abnormal clots become an issue, "blood-thinning" medications, like Coumadin, can be used to impair the clotting system. This will halt growth of the clot and reduce the risk of future clots. Complications
The factor V Leiden mutation is the most common inherited risk factor for abnormal blood clotting in the United States. Factor V Leiden mutations are estimated to be carried by: 5% of Caucasians 2% of Hispanic Americans 1% Native Americans 1% African Americans 0.5% Asian Americans
The symptoms of Factor V deficiency vary in severity, even between members of the same family. In many cases, the symptoms of Factor V deficiency are so mild that they cause no problems. However, if the level of Factor V is low or absent or it does not work properly, symptoms may be present, often early in life.
Factor v leiden mutation (r506q) is the most common cause of apc resistance. An abnormality that refers to mutation of factor v leiden, which is a variant of human factor v. It results in thrombophilia, deep vein thrombosis, and a slightly increased risk of miscarriage.

A: When physicians use a prothrombin time test (reported with CPT code 85610) to monitor patients on anticoagulant drugs, Medicare pays the entity that performed the test. Its payment for the test is based on the geographically specific laboratory test fee schedule.
The most common type of hereditary coagulation disorder is hemophilia. Patients with hemophilia can be diagnosed at any age and the age of diagnosis is often associated with how severe the condition is. The more severe the condition is the younger a patient is when they are diagnosed.

A blood coagulation disorder characterized by the complete absence of fibrinogen in the blood, resulting in bleeding. A deficiency of blood coagulation factor v (known as proaccelerin or accelerator globulin or labile factor) leading to a rare hemorrhagic tendency known as owren's disease or parahemophilia.
A usually inherited blood coagulation disorder characterized by the partial or complete absence of fibrinogen in the blood, resulting in bleeding. A very rare autosomal recessive inherited blood coagulation disorder characterized by deficiency of factor v, resulting in bleeding.
