A key date
October 13th was chosen for World Thrombosis Day because it’s the date-of-birth of Rudolf Virchow born in 1821. He was a German physician who pioneered in the pathophysiology of thrombosis. He even defined the original concept of "thrombosis" and notably advanced our understanding of this disorder.
Thrombosis keys facts
Thrombosis is the formation of potentially life-threatening blood clots in arteries (arterial thrombosis) or veins (venous thrombosis). The severity of thrombosis comes from the obstruction of the blood flow in organs. Thrombosis is the often preventable disorder that underlies pathology the three major cardiovascular killers : heart attack, thromboembolic stroke, and venous thromboembolism (VTE).
A logo with a funny story
It is interesting to note that WTD logo was designed by a patient. In fact, when WTD was created, Angchaisuksiri, a member of the WTD steering committee from Thailand, invited his patient Ekawat Suwantaroj to create a symbol for the first campaign. Thus, the artery is represented in red, the vein in blue and the clot with a white circle. This design is now used all over the world !
