Hereditary predisposition to thrombosis due to activated protein C resistance (APCR) has been attributed to a missense mutation in the factor V gene at nucleotide 1691 (G to A), causing replacement of arginine at codon 506 with glutamine. Using an RFLP-PCR assay to detect this mutation, we measured
## Objective: To test a possible association between activated protein C resistance and intrauterine fetal death. Methods: The activated protein C anticoagulant activity and factor V R506Q mutation were assessed in 14 nonpregnant women with a history of intrauterine fetal death and 14 healthy cont
