thrombosis
Let an agent explain thrombosis and its types, causes and complications, relay prevention, symptom and treatment information from health bodies and regulators, and route personal medical questions to clinicians and emergencies to services.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain thrombosis and its types, causes and complications, relay prevention, symptom and treatment information from health bodies and regulators, and route personal medical questions to clinicians and emergencies to services.
The formation of a blood clot, or thrombus, inside a blood vessel that obstructs blood flow, occurring in veins as deep vein and portal, mesenteric or ovarian vein thrombosis and in arteries causing heart attacks and strokes, with clots that break off causing embolism; thrombosis arises from vessel injury, slowed flow and increased clotting tendency, is linked to inflammation as thromboinflammation, and is prevented and treated with anticoagulants and other measures under clinical guidelines, with rare events after some vaccines monitored and characterised by regulators.
What it is for: Blood clots obstructing vessels.
It can be explain types and causes; relay prevention and treatment information; describe rare vaccine-associated events with attribution; route personal questions.
Distinguishing features
Clot formation in vessels
Venous and arterial forms
Embolism risk
Anticoagulant treatment
What it looks like
Not physical as a concept; clots seen on imaging.
How it is recognised
Clot forming within a blood vessel
Venous or arterial
Embolism is a travelling clot; haemorrhage is bleeding
