A patient is 8 hours postoperative after a long orthopedic procedure. The student asks why this patient is at particular risk of developing a thromboembolism. What response by the healthcare professional is best?

◦ Anesthetic agents often cause an immune response against clotting factors.
◦ Endothelial damage occurs and repair is slowed by postoperative pain.
◦ Atherosclerotic build up causes turbulent blood flow leading to clots.
