Hip Fracture P.E.

This Simulated Patient Encounter maps to Scenario MED 38 – Susan Weil – Hip Fracture – Pulmonary Embolism on the Elsevier Evolve Platform

Susan Weil is a 76-year-old white female with a history of hypertension and osteoporosis. After a fall, she was admitted to the medical-surgical unit for hemiarthroplasty. The surgery and postoperative recovery period have been uneventful except for moderate blood loss and a blood transfusion. During this scenario, learners must assess and manage care for this postoperative patient.
