NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — On World Thrombosis Day (October 13), the National Blood Clot Alliance (NBCA – stoptheclot.org), the nation’s leading patient advocacy organization focused on life-threatening blood clots, announced the launch of its new Sports & Wellness Institute, a comprehensive online community and resource designed specifically for amateur athletes and others striving to return to healthy, active lifestyles after surviving blood clots.

While medical advances are helping speed and improve the diagnosis of blood clots, awareness of risk factors, signs and symptoms remains critical. Regular physical activity and maintaining a healthy body weight reduce a person’s risk for blood clots, but in some cases physical fitness alone won’t prevent them. The mission of the NBCA Sports & Wellness Institute is to equip people who regularly listen to their bodies (as athletes often do) with information about early detection and prevention.
