DVT Awareness

The NHS is beginning to take great strides in promoting awareness for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). After years of scrutiny against the NHS neglect towards venous disease, the NHS is making leaflets outlining symptoms, treatments and procedures available to treat DVT and venous disease. A British man who lost his young daughter to DVT is hoping to raise awareness so people know to treat DVT immediately.

""I still feel that there is an ignorance among the medical profession with regards to just how serious DVT really is," said Mr McPherson. "It is our wish to raise the awareness level."

In fact, the Herald wrote a feature article about Mr. McPherson who lost his daughter, and praised the NHS's recent actions to fight against DVT and promote vein health.
