The drugs which can be used are : Low molecular weight heparin, unfractionated heparin and Warfarin.

The risk of developing thrombi (thrombophlebitis) is increased for 6 to 8 weeks after delivery (thromboembolic disease during pregnancy). In general, these thrombi form in the deep veins of the lower limbs or pelvis (a condition called deep vein thrombosis).

Sometimes one of these thrombi breaks off and migrates into the bloodstream to the lungs, where it lodges in a vessel, blocking blood flow. This is a pulmonary embolism.

Thrombi can also form in the veins just below the skin of the lower limbs. This is referred to as superficial vein thrombosis (superficial thrombophlebitis).

For superficial thrombi: hot compresses, compression bandages and elevation of the affected limb.

For deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism: medications.

The treatment of a superficial thrombus in the lower limbs involves the application of hot compresses (to reduce discomfort), the application of compression bandages by a doctor or a nurse and, at rest, the elevation of the affected leg (by example, raising the feet of the bed by 15 centimeters).

Women with deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism should take medication to prevent blood from clotting (anticoagulants).

<span>The U.S. National Institutes of Health has issued guidelines regarding the use of anticoagulants during breastfeeding. Specifically, warfarin, low molecular weight heparin, and unfractionated heparin are all considered to be safe for use with women who are lactating and breastfeeding, as these drugs have not been found to transmit into breast milk.</span>

I Will DEEM BRAINLIEST!!!!! What problem did run into the most when you tested your prototypes? What did you do to fix this prob
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Visual design

Users can be distracted by the lack of visual design on a prototype because wireframes and other low-fidelity prototypes are very basic. This can cause users to comment on the lack of design and colour and distract both themselves and the researcher from the true goals of the project. The extent of this challenge depends on the level of detail within the prototype.

How to get around this: Ensure the user is aware at the start of a session that the website they are about to view is at an early stage of development and so does not look and feel like they may expect. The research may need to be explicit with some users and point out it is not the visual design that we are interested in for today.

2. Partial journeys

Prototypes often cover only partial user journeys, meaning that users may have to be dropped into a journey at a specific point and may lose the context of the overall task or what they would be coming on the site to do.

How to get around this: As well as creating tasks which set the context, consider including some time at the beginning of the session for users to explore the prototype as they would normally do on that website/app, without giving them long enough to discover the prototype journeys. Introductory questions can also be asked at the start of the session to position the user in the right frame of mind for what the prototype will allow them to do, therefore helping to provide some context alongside the task wording.
