Amniotic Fluid Embolism And The Possible Protective Effects Of Heterozygous Factor V Leiden: A Case Report, Sanela Andelija, Olga M. Colon-Mercado, Kevin Rivera Rodriguez, Jessica A. Young, Greg Den Haese

With similar theorized mechanisms, we suspect factors that may modify mortality in sepsis may also modify mortality in AFE. Specifically, we ask if alterations in the coagulation cascade of heterozygous Factor V Leiden mutation (FVL+/-) can decrease mortality as seen in studies with severe sepsis. The following case …
