Maternal carriership of factor V Leiden associated with pathological uterine artery doppler measurements during pregnancy
Abstract To determine whether increased vascular resistance in the uterine artery is associated with carriership of factor V Leiden, a retrospective study was undertaken of 231 pregnant women who were monitored with Doppler velocimetry of the uterine arteries. These women had been part of a prospective study of 2,480 pregnant women in whom factor V Leiden had been analysed. When compared with non-
