Thrombosis Canada

What Thrombosis Canada does

Thrombosis Canada is a Canadian registered non-profit organization founded in 1991 and headquartered in Whitby, Ontario, that delivers education, clinical tools, and awareness resources on the prevention and treatment of thrombosis (deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) to two principal user groups: healthcare professionals seeking clinical decision support, treatment guidelines, and risk-assessment tools, and patients and caregivers seeking accessible blood clot education and symptom-recognition information.

The organization's product surface consists of two core offerings: a comprehensive website (thrombosiscanada.ca) hosting expert-authored clinical resources and patient materials, and a free mobile application available on both iOS and Android that delivers clinical tools and guides at point-of-care. Content is produced and reviewed by a membership described as comprising internationally recognized thrombosis experts, which the organization cites as the foundation of its clinical credibility. The technology stack is a standard web-and-mobile content-delivery platform with no disclosed AI, data, or software-as-a-service components.

The business model is donation-based: as a registered Canadian charity (#843620477 RR 0001) with no commercial interests, Thrombosis Canada does not charge users for its resources. Revenue derives from individual donations — both one-time gifts processed via CanadaHelps and a structured recurring donor program called "Thrombosis Champions" priced at $25 per month — together with campaign-driven awareness fundraising tied to the annual DVT Awareness Month in March. Distribution is digital-first, domestic (Canadian), and the organization operates with a small staff of 1-10 employees.

Direct peers

• World Thrombosis Day: International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis-led global awareness campaign focused on DVT and PE education. Closely comparable to Thrombosis Canada's mission of thrombosis awareness, patient education, and clinician resources, but operates at a global scale.
• National Blood Clot Alliance: US-based patient advocacy organization dedicated to blood clot awareness, education, and support. Directly comparable in mission and audience (patients and HCPs) to Thrombosis Canada, but US-focused.
• North American Thrombosis Forum: Non-profit focused on thrombosis education, research, and prevention across North America. Overlaps directly with Thrombosis Canada's clinical and patient education mandate, with broader North American reach.
• Anticoagulation Forum: US-based multidisciplinary organization providing education and guidance on anticoagulation and thrombosis management. Closely comparable as a clinical education and decision support resource for healthcare professionals managing thrombosis.
• Clot Connect: University of Colorado-affiliated thrombosis education resource for patients and providers. Comparable as a clinical reference and patient education platform for blood clot prevention and treatment.

Broad incumbents

• International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis: Global scientific society advancing research and education on thrombosis and hemostasis. Overlaps with Thrombosis Canada's expert membership and clinical guidance mission, but operates at a much larger global research and congress scale.
• Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada: Major Canadian non-profit funding research and public education on heart disease and stroke, including related thrombosis topics. Comparable as a Canadian-domiciled health education charity with broader cardiovascular scope.
• Canadian Cardiovascular Society: National specialty society for cardiovascular physicians in Canada, producing guidelines and educational resources. Comparable as a Canadian cardiology/thrombosis clinical reference and education provider serving physicians.
• American Heart Association: Large US-based cardiovascular health non-profit producing patient education, clinical guidelines, and mobile apps. Comparable in producing clinician and patient resources for cardiovascular conditions including thrombosis, but at vastly larger scale.

Emerging players
