Blood clots may be more common in patients with underlying risk factors, but they can happen to anyone. Learning to recognize the warning signs can help patients get treatment faster.

A blood clot occurs when a clump of blood changes from a liquid to gel or solid state.

“It’s a normal process that would help us stop bleeding when we’re injured, for example, but they can also occur when they’re not needed,” said Kelsey Martin, MD, a hematologist and oncologist who cares for patients at Smilow Cancer Hospital and assistant professor in Hematology at Yale School of Medicine.

When clots form inside blood vessels, they can potentially block blood flow and become dangerous or life threatening.
There are two main types of blood clots that form in veins. Deep vein thrombosis usually occurs in a leg or sometimes arm. A pulmonary embolism is a clot that travels to the lungs.

Heart failure. These two words from your doctor undoubtedly leave you thinking now what? You likely have questions and want answers.

First things first. A diagnosis of failure is no longer a death sentence. Also known as congestive heart failure, it means your heart can’t pump blood as well as it should to meet your body’s needs. This common, chronic condition affects nearly seven million American adults.

Heading off to kindergarten is an exciting time for both children and their parents, but it can also be a big adjustment, often creating stress for the whole family.

“When starting kindergarten, it is typical to see kids struggle with separating from parents at the start of the school day and adapting to the new academic expectations of a more structured school day,” said Jessica Dodge, MD, medical director of the Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program at Greenwich Hospital. “There can also be social struggles that may occur due to increased social expectations and language and cognitive demands.”
