Question 1 of 5

A nurse is conducting a lung assessment on a client suspected of having pneumonia. Which finding should the nurse report to the physician immediately?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, asymmetrical chest expansion. This finding is concerning because it suggests potential lung consolidation, a common sign of pneumonia. It indicates that one lung may not be expanding properly due to fluid or inflammation. Reporting this immediately is crucial for prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Choices B, C, and D are normal lung assessment findings and do not indicate an urgent issue. Breath sounds equal bilaterally and bilateral symmetric vocal fremitus are normal findings in healthy lungs, while a chest that is symmetrical is a normal physical characteristic.
Therefore, they do not require immediate reporting to the physician.
