The Factor V Blood Test checks how well your blood can form clots by measuring factor V, a protein that helps stop bleeding. You might also hear it called a factor V activity test or a coagulation factor V assay. You can book this at participating labs on LabFinder and pick a time that works for you.
This test, also called an F5 activity assay and coagulation factor V test, looks at the level or function of factor V in your blood. Low or poor factor V function can lead to longer bleeding. Very unusual results may be checked alongside other clotting tests for a full picture.
Common reasons: easy bruising or frequent nosebleeds, bleeding longer than expected after dental work or surgery, a personal or family history of blood clots, or checking clotting problems linked with liver disease or vitamin K issues. Your doctor may order this test with PT, INR, or aPTT for more detail.
You will check in, confirm your lab order, and show ID. A phlebotomist cleans your arm, places a small needle in a vein, and draws a sample. A bandage is placed, and you can usually leave right away. Plan for about 15 to 30 minutes from arrival to finish.
Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable.
Medications: tell the lab about all medicines and supplements, especially blood thinners. Food and drink: fasting is not usually needed unless your doctor added other labs. Hydration: drink water so veins are easier to find. Activity: avoid very hard exercise right before your draw. Bring your photo ID, insurance card if using insurance, and any prior results. Always follow your doctor’s specific instructions.
Unexplained easy bruising, frequent nosebleeds, heavy periods, long bleeding after procedures, deep vein clots in the legs, lung clots, and liver problems that affect clotting proteins. Results are interpreted in context. Your doctor will review your numbers with your history and symptoms before advising next steps.
