this is a nice topic about thrombosis, you can read it before study the lecture:
Thrombosis is the clotting of blood within a blood vessel. It occurs when a blood clot blocks a vein or an artery, obstructing or stopping the flow of blood.
Types of thrombosis
Thrombosis can occur anywhere in the body’s bloodstream. There are two main types of thrombosis:
venous thrombosis, which is a blood clot that develops in a vein, and
arterial thrombosis, which is a blood clot that develops in an artery.
One of the most common types of venous thrombosis is deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which is a blood clot in one of the deep veins of the body.
Arterial thrombosis often occurs in arteries that supply the heart, resulting in a heart attack. It can also occur in the arteries of the brain, causing a stroke.
Sometimes a blood clot (or part of one) can come away from its original site and travel through the bloodstream. If this occurs, the clot can become lodged in another part of the body. This is known as an embolism. A blood clot that lodges in one of the lungs is called a pulmonary embolism.
Who is affected by thrombosis?
Thrombosis is a widespread condition and a leading cause of death in the UK. Every year, one in every 1,000 people in the UK is affected by venous thrombosis.
Anyone can be affected by thrombosis, although it usually develops in older people and becomes more common with age. As well as age, there are a number of other factors that make developing thrombosis more likely, including:
family history,
inactivity, and
obesity.
Thrombosis often has few or no symptoms, and is sometimes referred to as a silent condition. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the signs and risk factors of thrombosis. There are several things that you can do to help prevent the condition occurring.
