Factor V Leiden Mutation Analysis Test
Test Cost: AED 1290.0
Overview
The Factor V Leiden mutation analysis test is a laboratory test offered by DNA Labs UAE. This test detects the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation in a person’s DNA. The Factor V Leiden mutation is a genetic mutation that increases the risk of developing abnormal blood clots in veins, a condition known as venous thromboembolism.

Test Details
The Factor V Leiden mutation analysis test is a laboratory test that detects the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation in a person’s DNA. The Factor V Leiden mutation is a genetic mutation that increases the risk of developing abnormal blood clots in veins, a condition known as venous thromboembolism. The test is usually performed using a blood sample. The DNA in the blood sample is analyzed to determine if there is a specific mutation in the Factor V gene that is associated with the Factor V Leiden mutation. If the mutation is present, it indicates an increased risk for abnormal blood clotting.
The Factor V Leiden mutation analysis test is often ordered for individuals who have a personal or family history of blood clots, especially if the clots occurred at a young age or without an obvious cause. It may also be ordered for individuals who have recurrent miscarriages or other complications during pregnancy, as the mutation can increase the risk of blood clots during pregnancy.
The results of the test can help healthcare providers determine the appropriate treatment and preventive measures for individuals with the Factor V Leiden mutation. This may include lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a healthy weight and exercising regularly, as well as medication to prevent blood clots.
It is important to note that having the Factor V Leiden mutation does not guarantee that a person will develop blood clots, as other factors, such as lifestyle and other genetic factors, also play a role. Similarly, not having the mutation does not completely eliminate the risk of blood clots, as there are other genetic and environmental factors that can contribute to clotting disorders.
