Description

The condition in which a blood clot is formed within a blood vessel is known as thrombosis. It obstructs the blood flow through the circulatory system. The two primary types of thrombosis are venous thrombosis and arterial thrombosis. Venous thrombosis occurs in the veins and results in the congestion of the affected body part. Arterial thrombosis impacts the supply of the blood and could also lead to tissue damage. Anticoagulation, antiplatelet drugs, thrombolysis and surgery are some common methods for treating thrombosis. The various advances in the treatment of thrombosis are glanced at in this book and their applications and ramifications are looked at in detail. Most of the topics introduced herein cover new techniques of assessment of this condition. Students, researchers, doctors and hematologists will benefit alike from this book.
