Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has developed pulmonary embolism (PE). Which of the following diagnostic tests should the nurse anticipate the provider to prescribe to confirm the client's condition?(Select All that Apply.)

Correct Answer: A,C,E

Rationale: A D-dimer test measures clot breakdown products in the blood, with elevated levels suggesting the presence of an abnormal blood clot like in PE. A CT pulmonary angiography is the gold standard for diagnosing PE, providing detailed images of the lung's blood vessels. A VQ scan is another diagnostic tool for PE, especially for clients who cannot tolerate contrast dye, as it identifies ventilation-perfusion mismatches suggestive of PE. A CBC is not typically used to diagnose PE, and a chest x-ray is performed to rule out other causes but does not confirm PE.
