Sitting in the computer terminal for a long time may sit on a small seat in a small flight, it will cause fatal thrombosis: E-embolism.
???? On the recent published EuroRespirj (2003, 21: 374), the Richard
BEASLEY in the New Zealand Institute reported a 32-year-old male embolism case. Initially, the patient was first calorie, and pain was disappeared after 10 days. But in the next few weeks, when he used to force, his chest tightness was aggravated until there was a loss of consciousness a day and sent into the hospital. His cause is a large number of thrombosis formed in the vein of the lower extremities to the lungs, causing pulmonary embolism. This case is the same as the deep venous thromboembolic (DVT) that is known for the well-known long-distance passengers. He has resumed healthy medication using diluted blood.
???? This patient is in his work and at home, often sitting in his computer screen, often 12 hours a day, sometimes even 18 hours. "He usually takes two hours before the computer, many times, 6 hours, not standing up to leave the work desk." The researcher said that he did not have other DVT hazardous factors.
???? New Zealand researchers wrote: "This is the case in which the first example is repeated to wait for a long time to sit still with pulmonary embolism." They suggest that this is called "E-embolization". "Now the computer is widely used in people's work, learning, entertainment, and personal contacts. The potential load of E-embolism is quite big. This situation is the same as long-distance flights, if it does not report such cases, people will not Understanding it will cause much harm. "
???? London Middlesex Hospital Vascular Surgery Johnscurr Physician said he has treated several similar E-embolism patients. He said: "We should see more connotations from this case. Maybe someone will say this situation is very rare, but it is necessary to realize that if you are still moving, some potential things can happen. Sitting for a few hours The people who have no movements will form a small thrombosis in his veins. This is very common. When he walks, these thrombosis will disappear. But if he takes a long time, these thrombosis will grow, leg It will become swollen, when a small piece of thrombosis falls off, it will go to the lungs. "
???? DVT occurs when the venous blood flow is not smooth and thrombosis. It can also appear during cycle, such as patients with heart disease, recent heart attack or stroke, varicose veins, inactive or long-term bed bed. Pregnant women, weight overweight, older, smokers, coronary heart disease, patients, and some blood disease patients are considered a high risk group.
