Correct Answer: 3

Rationale 1: Thrombolytics are prescribed for disorders in which a clot has already formed.
Rationale 2: Thrombolytics are prescribed for disorders in which a clot has already formed.
Rationale 3: Postoperative bleeding would not be a reason to prescribe a thrombolytic drug.
Rationale 4: Thrombolytics are prescribed for disorders in which a clot has already formed.
