Zvidzidzo zvakaratidza kuti vafambi vendege, chitima, bhazi kana mota vanoramba vakagara rwendo rwemaawa anopfuura mana vari panjodzi huru yevenous thromboembolism nekukonzera kuti ropa retsinga rimire, zvichiita kuti magwamba eropa aumbe mutsinga.Pamusoro pezvo, vafambi vanotora ndege dzakawanda munguva pfupi vari panjodzi huru, nekuti njodzi yevenous thromboembolism haiperi zvachose mushure mekupera kwendege, asi inoramba yakakwira kwemavhiki mana.

Pane zvimwe zvinhu zvinogona kuwedzera njodzi yevenous thromboembolism panguva yekufamba, mushumo unoratidza, kusanganisira kufutisa, kureba zvakanyanya kana kuderera (pamusoro pe1.9m kana pasi pe1.6m), kushandiswa kwemishonga yemuromo uye chirwere cheropa.

Nyanzvi dzinoti kukwira nekudzika kwechitsiko chetsoka chetsoka kunogona kushandisa tsandanyama dzemhuru uye kukurudzira kuyerera kweropa mutsinga dzetsandanyama dzemhuru, nokudaro zvichideredza kusamira kweropa.Pamusoro pezvo, vanhu havafanire kupfeka hembe dzakasimba pavanenge vachifamba, nekuti zvipfeko zvakadaro zvinogona kuita kuti ropa rimire.

Muna 2000, kufa kwemukadzi wechidiki weBritish kubva kundege refu muAustralia kubva kupulmonary embolism kwakakwevera vezvenhau uye kutarisisa kweruzhinji kune njodzi yethrombosis muvafambi venguva refu.WHO yakatanga chirongwa cheWHO Global Travel Hazards Project muna 2001, nechinangwa chechikamu chekutanga chiri chekusimbisa kana kufamba kunowedzera njodzi yevenous thromboembolism uye kuona kuoma kwenjodzi;mushure mekunge mari yakakwana yawanikwa, chechipiri A chidzidzo chechikamu chichatangwa nechinangwa chekuona matanho ekudzivirira anobudirira.

Maererano neWHO, zviratidzo zviviri zvakajairika zvevenous thromboembolism ndeye deep vein thrombosis uye pulmonary embolism.Deep vein thrombosis imamiriro ekuti ropa rakavharwa kana kuti thrombus inoumba mutsinga yakadzika, kazhinji mugumbo rezasi.Zviratidzo zveyakadzika vein thrombosis kunyanya kurwadziwa, kunyorova, uye kuzvimba munzvimbo yakakanganiswa.

Thromboembolism inoitika apo ropa rakagwamba mutsinga dzezasi (kubva mutsinga yakadzika thrombosis) rinoputika uye rofamba nemuviri kuenda kumapapu, uko rinoisa uye rinovharira kubuda kweropa.Izvi zvinonzi pulmonary embolism.Zviratidzo zvinosanganisira kurwadziwa muchipfuva uye kunetseka kufema.

Venous thromboembolism inogona kuonekwa kuburikidza nekuongororwa kwekurapa uye kurapwa, asi kana ikasarapwa, inogona kuisa hupenyu panjodzi, WHO yakati.
