This resolution highlights deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) as serious, often preventable medical conditions. DVT involves blood clots in deep veins, while PE is a life-threatening complication where a clot travels to the lungs, affecting up to 900,000 individuals and causing 60,000 to 100,000 deaths annually in the United States. The resolution notes that DVT and PE are among the leading causes of preventable hospital deaths and pose significant risks for cancer patients and pregnant individuals. Risk factors include immobility, surgery, older age, and a family history of clotting, contributing to an estimated $10 billion in incremental medical costs each year. Therefore, the Senate expresses its support for the goals and ideals of "Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism Awareness Month." It recognizes the critical importance of raising awareness to educate the public about these conditions, their prevention, and their significant impact on public health.
