Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who is receiving heparin therapy for deep-vein thrombosis. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that the therapy is effective?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Reduced calf circumference. This indicates that the heparin therapy is effective in treating deep-vein thrombosis by reducing swelling and inflammation in the affected area. Decreased calf circumference suggests improved blood flow and resolution of the clot. Pedal pulses (choice
A) relate more to arterial circulation than the effectiveness of anticoagulant therapy. Decreased INR (choice
B) would actually indicate ineffectiveness of heparin as it suggests inadequate anticoagulation. Platelets within the expected range (choice
D) are not directly related to the effectiveness of heparin therapy for DVT.
