An important aspect of health education counseling for a driver with deep vein thrombosis is:

  2. The necessity of wearing compression socks.
  3. Alternative careers which allow for more movement.
  4. None of the above
Explanation
Answer: A - Risks associated with inactivity while driving and interventions that could prevent another thrombotic event.

Because the risk of deep vein thrombosis is particularly high among drivers, due to long periods of sitting in one position, medical examiners should take care to counsel drivers who are at risk for deep vein thrombosis.
