Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client who has a pelvic fracture about the manifestations of fat embolism syndrome. The nurse should include which of the following findings as an early manifestation?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Tachypnea, or rapid breathing, is an early manifestation of fat embolism syndrome. This condition occurs when fat globules are released into the bloodstream, often following a fracture, and can obstruct pulmonary vessels, leading to respiratory distress. Tachypnea is a critical early sign as the body attempts to compensate for reduced oxygenation.
