Factor V Leiden-Mutant Detection (G1691A Mutation) by Real Time PCR – Blood
Also known as: Factor V Leiden Mutant Detection (G1691A Mutation), EDTA Blood
Overview
The Factor V Leiden-Mutant Detection (G1691A Mutation) assay utilizes real-time PCR to detect the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation, specifically the G1691A mutation, in the blood. This mutation leads to the resistance of Factor V degradation by Activated Protein C, increasing the risk of venous thrombosis. The clinical utility of this assay lies in the evaluation of patients with suspected thrombophilia, a condition predisposing individuals to abnormal blood clotting, as well as those with a family history of Factor V Leiden mutation. Additionally, the test is useful for identifying individuals with an inherited gene mutation that heightens their risk of developing blood clots, including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and/or venous thromboembolism (VTE). By identifying the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation, appropriate preventive measures and treatment strategies can be implemented to mitigate the risk of venous thrombotic events.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Factor V Leiden-Mutant Detection (G1691A Mutation) assay utilizes real-time PCR to detect the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation, specifically the G1691A mutation, in the blood
• To identify individuals with an increased risk of venous thrombosis. • To identify if a patient has an inherited gene mutation that increases their risk of developing blood clots, including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and/or venous thromboembolism (VTE). • In patients with clinically suspected thrombophilia or a family history of the Factor V Leiden mutation.
This test is recommended if you have • Symptoms or a family history of blood clotting disorders • Symptoms suggestive of deep venous thrombosis or venous thromboembolism • A personal or family history of Factor V Leiden mutation • Certain medical conditions, such as recurrent miscarriages or unexplained thrombosis
Abnormal results, positive for the mutation, suggest an increased risk of venous thrombosis.
This test involves drawing a small sample of blood from a vein in your arm using a needle and a syringe. You may feel a slight pinch as the needle is inserted, but the procedure is generally quick and painless. The blood sample will be sent to the laboratory for analysis.
• No fasting or special dietary restrictions are necessary. • Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking. • Provide your complete medical history and any family history of blood clotting disorders. • Please reach out to your healthcare provider for any specific requirements.
• Antithrombin III Test • Protein C and Protein S Test • D-Dimer Test
Factor V Leiden Mutation Test, G1691A Mutation Test, Factor V R506Q Mutation Test
Thrombophilia refers to a tendency to develop blood clots inappropriately. It can be caused by genetic mutations, such as the Factor V Leiden mutation. Thrombophilia increases the risk of conditions like deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and other blood clot-related disorders.
