Abstract:
There are many known risk factors for the development of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). However, a recently observed risk factor is prolonged sitting (or immobility) for occupational dispensation. Some occupations, especially electronic information technology (IT) professionals, computer gamers, programmers, etc., are amenable to prolonged sitting periods for their work. Such a trend significantly increased in the corporate world during the covid pandemic restrictions and work-from-home policy of the IT companies. We have reported a case of the sudden death of an IT professional due to DVT and PTE. There is a conspicuous indication of the association between prolonged sitting hours and the development of DVT and PTE. This is also known as e-thrombosis. The prolonged seated immobility thromboembolic syndrome is a recently observed phenomenon in professionals having prolonged seated working styles. This paper is a case-based review of all tenets, i.e., clinical presentation, autopsy pathology, and preventive measures of the prolonged seated immobility thromboembolism associated with a sedentary working style.
摘要:
深静脉血栓形成(DVT)和肺血栓栓塞(PTE)的发展有许多已知的危险因素。然而,最近观察到的一个危险因素是长时间坐着(或不动)进行职业分配。一些职业,特别是电子信息技术(IT)专业人员,电脑游戏玩家,程序员,等。,适合长时间工作。在IT公司的covid大流行限制和在家工作政策期间,这种趋势在企业界显着增加。我们报道了一例由于DVT和PTE导致IT专业人员猝死的病例。有明显的迹象表明,久坐时间延长与DVT和PTE的发展之间存在关联。这也被称为电子血栓形成。长期坐姿不动的血栓栓塞综合征是最近在具有长期坐姿工作风格的专业人员中观察到的现象。本文是对所有原则的案例回顾,即,临床表现,尸检病理学,以及与久坐工作方式相关的长期坐不动血栓栓塞的预防措施。
