The Danger of Long-haul Flights
A recent New Zealand Air Traveller's Thrombosis Study undertaken by the Medical Research Institute of New Zealand revealed that 10% of over 500 patients admitted to local hospitals with a DVT or pulmonary embolism had recently traveled by air.
The reason these conditions develop is because when you spend many hours in a cramped, seated position, blood flow is negatively affected and can result in the formation of clots. Should a clot break free and reach your lungs, it could have catastrophic consequences as during a flight medical resources are extremely limited in capacity.
