Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

Surgical intervention for PVD includes endarterectomy and bypass grafts. All other choices are non-surgical interventions for PVD.

Yoga is considered a complementary therapy used to reduce stress and improve circulation. Jogging, weight lifting, and bicycling may or may not help improve the client's diagnosis of PVD.
