Thrombosis drives heart attacks, strokes, & VTE, yet key aspects remain poorly understood.

Prevention is under-prioritized, and experiments on animals—despite poor relevance to humans—still consume vast research resources.

On #WorldThrombosisDay, let’s rethink where our research dollars go.

Carrying out a blood clot risk assessment for patients who have a lower limb injury is so important as it makes sure that the right patients are identified for blood clot prevention medication - always ask what your blood clot risk is when attending hospital 🤗

Thrombosis UK @thrombosisuk.bsky.social · 2d

How can we reduce the risk of #VTE in lower limb immobilisation? Can you become involved in research that will help inform future policy? Find out about the TiLLI trial.

Did you know blood clots are often preventable? Top risk factors:

- Immobility
- Surgery, major injury
- Cancer, certain treatments
- Family or personal history
- Hormones, pregnancy or postpartum

From head to toe, take control. 💙
