Create a 1- (one) page client teaching handout about prevention and early recognition of venous thromboembolisms in the newly postoperative client

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) (2023) report that 60,000 – 100,000 Americans die each year from venous thromboembolisms and the resulting pulmonary embolisms. Nurses play a key role in the prevention of the development of VTEs.

For this assignment, create a 1- (one) page client teaching handout about prevention and early recognition of venous thromboembolisms in the newly postoperative client. Because this is for a client, use clear, concise language. Guidelines from the CDC for creating client teaching information are available hereLinks to an external site..

You may use Word, PowerPoint, Canva, etc. to create the handout as long as it can be uploaded below. You can include facts, figures, pictures, etc. to enhance the handout if you choose.

Include these headings at a minimum:
Risk Factors
Signs and Symptoms to Report to Your Nurse
Actions Your Nurse Might Perform to Prevent the Development of a Clot
