The nurse is developing a plan of care for a client who will be admitted to the medical-surgical unit with a diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the right leg. What should be included in the client's care plan?

A. Opioid analgesics may be necessary for pain but are not the priority in DVT management. B. Measuring calf circumference regularly helps monitor for swelling or worsening of the DVT. C. Cool packs are not recommended for DVT; warm compresses may be used for comfort, but anticoagulation therapy is the main treatment. D. The affected leg should be elevated, not kept in a dependent position, to promote venous return and reduce swelling.
