Vascular Surgeons Organize Health Walk to Promote Thrombosis Prevention and Early Detection

The Dominican Society of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery (SDCVE), in collaboration with the National District Mayor's Office and Iberoamérica Park administration, organized a health walk on October 10th to raise awareness about vascular health and the importance of thrombosis prevention and early detection. The initiative aims to educate the public about deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism, serious conditions that can develop when blood clots form in veins. Early detection and prevention strategies, including physical activity, compression therapy, and proper medical monitoring, are critical to reducing complications and improving patient outcomes. Community engagement events like this walk help reduce healthcare disparities and empower residents to take proactive measures for their vascular health.
