A South African company, specialising in indigenous botanical skin care products, The Renewal Centre, who bill themselves as South Africa's antidote to Stress, today announced their development of a unique and preventative measure against Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), the scourge of airlines, created for airline passengers concerned about contracting DVT from long haul flights. In deep vein thrombosis a blood clot forms in one of the veins deep inside the leg. It can occur at any age but is much more common in older people. The clot may break away from its position and travel through the heart to the lung where it may cause severe symptoms which can result in death. The risk of developing DVT, which can of course occur quite independently from air travel, is very strongly linked to age. It is uncommon in young people and very common in the elderly. If air travel is considered in isolation, studies have shown that 3-5% of travellers develop clots in veins. Some are asymptomatic, or occur with mild symptoms. Of great concern is that in 2001 the medical journal Lancet published an analysis estimating that two million cases of DVT occurred in the US each year and that a million could be attributed to air travel, with a total of 100,00 fatalities attributed to flying. (Published in the Lancet (9/8/01).
