Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Pharmacologic choices for prophylaxis include low-dose subcutaneous heparin, low-molecular-weight heparin, and fondaparinux.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of MRI are approximately 97. MRI with radial pulse acquisition appears accurate in the diagnosis of acute deep venous thrombosis. Because of its limited availability, MRI may not be useful in the acute setting.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
