so the guy gets DVT from sitting there playing computer games - up to 12 hours. Hmmmm... I generally work 8 - 9 hours at my desk a day (including get up to use the facilities or grab lunch)
I'd imagine there are a lot more people who work longer, or who leave their desk less. I wonder why DVT isn't a bigger issue, or if it is, why it therefore isn't reported?

Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), collectively termed venous thromboembolism (VTE), are a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Quantifying the disease burden has proven difficult, given that VTE is often clinically silent. Indeed, a significant majority of VTE diagnoses are likely missed [1]. This is evident from numerous post mortem studies identifying an abundance of VTE events that were clinically undiagnosed prior to death [2,3].
