Influence of aircraft chair quality on blood coagulation and leg edema formation during a simulated long-haul flight
Introduction World wide approximately 1.5 billion passengers travel by aircrafts yearly. In the past years there have been increasing reports suggesting a causal link between longhaul flights and thromboembolic events. It has been postulated that besides sitting in a cramped position DVT may be triggered by aircraft-specific factors. Whether these aircraft-specific factors (moderate hypoxia, lo...

متن کاملLong haul
Birds do it, fish do it and even some insects do it: seasonal, continent-scale migrations. Mammals appear much less adapted to move over such great distances, although whales undertake substantial annual journeys. Now new research suggests that the humpback whale of the Eastern Pacific travels further than any previously documented mammal — moving up and down the south-east Pacific. Researchers...
