Clot Formation and Clot Breakdown: 2D Medical Animation

[lcestnick]

To learn about stroke, outcomes of stroke, and what to do about it, search Dr. Laurie Cestnick Harvard University on youtube for a video. I hope this is helpful!

i'm just curious as to what this drug is aimed at.. is it intended for use on hemophiliacs or something? i can't think of any other reason you would want to prevent the breakdown of blood clots

[MUHAJIB]

how about those who've just had surgery.. These patients depend on their blood to clot so they don't bleed out..

Imagine it's your blood cell changing shape into a sickled cell, now those sickle cells block your blood flow, now the blood flow stops in your brain. This equates to a stroke.

That's what Sickle Cell disease does to millions of people around the world.

Regular exercise increases natural thrombolytic factors in your blood. Or dissolving factors as they're referred to in this video. Eat plenty of greens and, believe it or not: red meat. It has innumerable trace minerals and protein. It is a blatant lie that it is bad for you. Too much of anything will kill you because balance is the secret to life. Too much vitamin K and you will form thousands of clots throughout your body, too little and you'll bleed out of your eyes. Do your homework.
