Factor V deficiency

Fresh plasma or fresh frozen plasma infusions will correct the deficiency temporarily and should be given daily during a bleeding episode or after surgery.

The stress of illness can often be helped by joining a support group where members share common experiences and problems. See hemophilia - support group.

The probable outcome is good with diagnosis and proper treatment.

Severe hemorrhage could occur.

Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) if you have an unexplained or prolonged loss of blood.
