Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who experienced a lacerated spleen and has been on bedrest for several days. The nurse auscultates decreased breath sounds in the lower lobes of both lungs. The nurse should realize that this finding is most likely an indication of which of the following conditions?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Atelectasis. A lacerated spleen can lead to splenic embolization, causing atelectasis due to the accumulation of blood or fluid in the pleural space. This results in decreased breath sounds in the affected lobes. Pulmonary edema (
A) would present with crackles, not decreased breath sounds. An upper respiratory infection (
B) typically presents with upper respiratory symptoms like cough and congestion, not decreased breath sounds. Delayed gastric emptying (
