Travelers' thrombosis / Raymond V Johnson ...[et al.]. - 2014

Venous thromboembolism is widely, but incorrectly, assumed to be a feature only of air travel. This paper reports that any form of travel transport in which an individual is immobile for over 4 hours can predispose to thrombosis, thus the term 'travellers' thrombosis' is considered more appropriate.
