Assess the client's breath sounds. - =Answer>>
Assess the client's breath sounds.
A client with a fractured hip is at an increased risk for
fat embolism syndrome (FES). The fat emboli can travel

(resulting in petechiae) or small vessels supplying vital
organs, including the lungs. The nurse should assess
the client's breath sounds to determine if emboli have
traveled to the client's lungs.

Cerebral palsy is a permanent disorder that leads to

palsy. The nurse should document the expected
findings.
