Fat embolism syndrome (FES) is a relatively uncommon, life-threatening sequela of long-bone fractures. Occurring 24 to 48 hours postinjury, the syndrome manifests as hypoxemia, confusion, and petechiae. The pathophysiologic changes in the lung are consistent with those of ARDS. Nursing priorities include an awareness of risk factors, familiarity with signs and symptoms, and a high index of suspicion in patients with multiple long-bone fractures.
脂肪栓塞综合征（FES）是长骨骨折相对少见但危及生命的后遗症。该综合征在受伤后24至48小时出现，表现为低氧血症、意识障碍和瘀点。肺部的病理生理变化与急性呼吸窘迫综合征（ARDS）一致。护理重点包括了解危险因素、熟悉体征和症状，以及对多发性长骨骨折患者保持高度怀疑。
