The Public Health Burden Associated with Blood Clots.
Blood clots affect many people — people from all walks of life — and no one person is any less important than another. It’s difficult to look at the numbers below, and not think of the individuals — their families, their friends — and not ask oneself, “Could I be at risk for a blood clot?” The answer most certainly is, “Yes, anyone can be affected by blood clots.” Blood clots do not discriminate.
Tragically, too many lives are affected by blood clots, and too many lives are lost because public awareness about life-threatening blood clots is so low. Study after study has shown that fewer than 1 in 4 people have any recognition of blood clots or their signs and symptoms.
Consider this:
On average, one person dies every six minutes from a blood clot.
Don’t be one of them. Blood Clots Can Be Prevented.
Understand the risks. Know the signs & symptoms.
