A nurse is caring for a client with a new diagnosis of Paget's disease. The nurse anticipates the provider will prescribe which of the following medications for this client?

Choice A rationale: Tachycardia and petechiae over the chest wall and buccal membranes are signs of fat embolism syndrome, another complication of fractures that occurs when fat globules enter the bloodstream and obstruct pulmonary vessels.

Choice B rationale: Positive Homan's sign with calf tenderness and warmth are signs of deep vein thrombosis, a condition that can occur after prolonged immobilization or surgery.

Choice C rationale: Acute cough, cyanosis, and decreased blood pressure are signs of pulmonary embolism, a life-threatening condition that occurs when a blood clot travels to the lungs and blocks blood flow.

Choice D rationale: These are signs of compartment syndrome, which is a serious complication of fractures that occurs when increased pressure within a closed space compromises blood flow and tissue perfusion. Compartment syndrome can lead to ischemia, necrosis, and nerve damage if not treated promptly.

Choice A rationale: This is not accurate since the manifestations of facial nerve paralysis are observed on the contralateral side which in this case is the left side of the face hence the right facial nerve is paralyzed.

Choice B rationale: Facial nerve paralysis cause symptoms such as drooping of the eyelid, cheek or mouth as depicted in the above picture. The right facial nerve is paralyzed since the nerve innervates the contralateral side hence the effects are demonstrated on the

left side of the face.

Choice C rationale: trigeminal nerve paralysis causes symptoms such as weakness in muscles of mastication, altered sensation over the face and tongue, and hearing impairment and not the symptoms depicted above.

Choice D rationale: trigeminal nerve paralysis causes symptoms such as weakness in muscles of mastication, altered sensation over the face and tongue, and hearing impairment and not the symptoms depicted above.
