    Extractions: Languages Spanish Portuguese German Italian Danish Japanese Korean Arabic Time, Inc. Time.com People Fortune EW From staff and wire reports GENEVA, Switzerland International medical experts and officials from 16 major airlines across the globe on Tuesday heard a leading expert on deep vein thrombosis link the condition to most types of travel. Organized by the World Health Organization's cardiovascular disease unit, the closed-door meetings in Geneva, Switzerland, began Monday and concluded Tuesday. "Travel-related thrombosis is a better name," Dr. John Scurr, a British surgeon who has studied the syndrome, told Reuters. "Studies have shown it is a common travel problem." Scurr is a surgeon at Middlesex and University College Hospital in London, England. PREVENTION Snacking, moving can decrease risk of flight-related blood clots Also speaking Tuesday was Dr. Derek Yach of the WHO, who agreed with Scurr that deep vein thrombosis is probably a bigger issue than it currently appears to be. Physicians say the condition is still rare, however. Gregory Hartl, a spokesman for the United Nations health agency, called the two-day meeting significant. "We've come to this with an open mind. We need to review the research done and see what gaps need filling and what, how and when it needs to be done on an international scale," he told The Associated Press.

    Extractions: Doctor Finder Explaining IR Insurance Coverage IR History ... Treatments Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is the formation of a blood clot, known as a thrombus, in the deep leg vein. It is a very serious condition that can cause permanent damage to the leg, known as post-thrombotic syndrome, or a life-threating pulomnary embolism. In the United States alone, 600,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. One in every 100 people who develops DVT dies. Recently, it has been referred to as "Economy Class Syndrome" due to the occurrence after sitting on long flights. The deep veins that lie near the center of the leg are surrounded by powerful muscles that contract and force deoxygenated blood back to the lungs and heart. One-way valves prevent the back-flow of blood between the contractions. (Blood is squeezed up the leg against gravity and the valves prevent it from flowing back to our feet.) When the circulation of the blood slows down due to illness, injury or inactivity, blood can accumulate or "pool" which provides an ideal setting for clot formation.

    Extractions: Deep vein thrombosis , also known as deep venous thrombosis or DVT , is the occlusion of a deep vein by a blood clot ("thrombus").

In many patients, the symptoms are more insidious. In up to 25% of all hospitalised patients, there may be some form of DVT, which often remains clinically inapparent (unless

    Extractions: CNNfn Correspondent ASHFORD, England (CNN) Ashford Hospital is a 10-minute drive from London's Heathrow Airport, and almost every month it deals with an air passenger who has died from a condition called deep-vein thrombosis blood clotting and blocked lungs resulting from prolonged sitting on long- haul flights. A study at the hospital identified 30 deaths in three years from deep-vein thrombosis arising from air travel. And even though deaths are relatively rare, the condition is causing growing concern. REDUCE THE RISK Snacking, moving can decrease risk of flight-related blood clots Ashford Hospital's Dr. John Belstead said emergency nursing staff there started noticing long-haul travelers dying of massive blood clots as early as eight years ago. "It's the red-eye flights from the west of the United States and the Far East, and also from Australia," he said. "It's mostly people who sleep in their seats."

    http://www.australianprescriber.com/magazines/vol21no3/vein_thrombosis.htm
    
    Extractions: The management of established thrombosis has been transformed by low molecular weight heparins. Their pharmacokinetics and dynamics allow them to be given subcutaneously in a dose determined by body weight alone. While this permits treatment of selected patients at home, great care is needed. The correct diagnosis remains essential because the risks of early recurrence and bleeding are little different from those observed with standard heparin. Symptomatic calf vein thrombosis should be treated. Sixty years ago, before heparin came into general use, symptoms of deep leg vein thrombosis progressed from calf to thigh or to the opposite leg in 60% of untreated patients. Embolism occurred in 40% of those with thrombosis and half the patients with pulmonary embolism died. Today, we expect symptomatic extension or embolism in less than 5% of people treated for extensive deep leg vein thrombosis with standard heparin or a low molecular weight heparin followed by warfarin. Deaths from pulmonary embolism should be below 2%.

    Deep vein thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot in one of the deep veinsof the body, usually in the leg.  
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/medical_notes/c-d/986364.stm
    
    Extractions: Deep vein thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot in one of the deep veins of the body, usually in the leg. It is comparatively rare, affecting around one or two people in every thousand, mainly older people. What is deep vein thrombosis? Deep vein thrombosis, commonly referred to as DVT, is a disease of the circulation. It occurs most often in people who have not been able to exercise normally. Blood passing through the deepest veins in the calf or thigh flows relatively slowly: when a DVT occurs it moves so slowly that it forms a solid clot which becomes wedged in the vein. What are the symptoms? Quite often there are no symptoms at all. Where they do exist there may be pain or tenderness in the leg and raised skin temperature around the area. Sudden swelling in one leg may be the first sign. Occasionally some of the surface veins are more visible through the skin. There may also be pain on flexing the foot upwards.

    From Dr. P. C. Malone, offering research papers, articles, and DVT information.  
    http://www.travellersthrombosis.co.uk/
    
    Extractions: THE TERM “TRAVELLERS THROMBOSIS”, (T.T.), was suggested by the Select Committee of the House of Lords in 2000 to replace “ECS” (Economy Class Syndrome). Synonyms used are 'DVT/E', 'VTE' (Venous Thrombo-embolism), Travel (or Flight) related pulmonary embolism. T.T. is NOT a common occurrence - in fact it is extremely rare. Estimates of its incidence vary from about nil deaths per million on flights of two hours or less, to 0.1 deaths per million among passengers who fly distances shorter than 7500 Km, to a putative 25 per million among those who fly over 10,000 Km (Lapostolle et al. New Eng. Jour. Med. 2001; 345: 779-783) - i.e. ONLY about 0.000025% of those who fly 20,000Km ACTUALLY suffer DVT/E signs, symptoms, or death. Lapostolle et al's more remarkable finding and insight was that the SLOPE of their graph of increasing DVT/E fatalities is exponential. Furthermore, Flight Deck and Cabin crew members ARE NOT REPRESENTED in DVT/E statistics - though they share the same cabin environment as their passengers, and for much longer periods of their lives : it could therefore seem that frequently mentioned cabin conditions - the dry air, the reduced oxygen concentration, and life at high altitude do not seem to be true ‘causative’ factors. Significant differences are that the crew are mostly young, working, NOT TERRIFIED, nor “PARALYSED by FEAR”, sleep 8 hours daily in horizontal bunks, and are FORBIDDEN to drink ALCOHOL on their tour of duty - will be proposed as underlying reasons why they do NOT suffer T.T., and, vice versa, will constitute the basic reasons why the status and behaviors of SOME passengers lead to their suffering T.T.
