The nurse closely monitors bilateral breath sounds and chest movement following a thoracentesis because:
1.   fluid may quickly accumulate due to inflammation.
2.   the lung may have been punctured during the procedure.
3.   severe bronchospasm may cause atelectasis.
4.   asthma may result postprocedure.
