The nurse is assessing an Infant on admission to the newborn nursery and finds that bo femoral pulses are only slightly palpable.Which assessment should the nurse implemen A Assess heart sounds for a murmur. B Listen to the lung fields for fine crackles. C Obtain blood pressures in all extremities. D Evaluate the legs for evidence of edema.

C Obtain blood pressures in all extremities.<br /><br />When femoral pulses are only slightly palpable, it may indicate a potential issue with circulation or cardiac function. Obtaining blood pressures in all extremities can help identify discrepancies that might suggest conditions such as coarctation of the aorta, where there is a narrowing of the aorta that can lead to differences in blood pressure between the upper and lower extremities. This assessment will provide valuable information about the infant's cardiovascular status.
