Answer:

E. The author of the health record suspects that a clot is blocking a blood vessel in the patient's calf and has prescribed a drug that will prevent the blood from clotting.

Explanation:

  • Septicemia is a bacterial infection in the blood. According to the report, the patient will continue to receive IV antibiotics.
  • Anemia is a deficiency of hemoglobin or red blood cells. Coagulopathy is the impairment of blood coagulation. This is a bleeding disorder characterized by excess, uncontrolled bleeding.
  • Thrombocytopenia is characterized by a deficiency of platelets, leading to decreased coagulation.
  • Thromboembolism is the blockage of blood vessels due to the dislodging of a blood clot.
  • Hyperbilirubinemia is the excess of bilirubin in the blood due to reduced liver function.

The option E states correctly that the patient has thromboembolism, leading to swelling of the calf. However, the doctor has not yet prescribed a medication. The report states that a medication will be prescribed after a hematology/oncology consultation.
