1. Question
Which of the following actions is the first priority of care for a client
exhibiting signs and symptoms of coronary artery disease?
A. Decrease anxiety.
B. Enhance myocardial oxygenation.
C. Administer sublingual nitroglycerin.
D. Educate the client about his symptoms.
Incorrect
Correct Answer: B. Enhance myocardial oxygenation.
Enhancing myocardial oxygenation is always the first priority when
a client exhibits signs or symptoms of cardiac compromise.
Without adequate oxygenation, the myocardium suffers damage.
The desired effect is to decrease myocardial oxygen demand by
decreasing ventricular stress. Drugs with negative inotropic
properties can decrease perfusion to the already ischemic
myocardium. A combination of nitrates and beta-blockers may have
cumulative effects on cardiac output.
Option A: Promote expression of feelings and fears. Let the
patient/SO know these are normal reactions. Unexpressed feelings
may create internal turmoil and affect self-image. Verbalization of
concerns reduces tension, verifies the level of coping, and
facilitates dealing with feelings. The presence of negative self-talk
can increase the level of anxiety and may contribute to an
exacerbation of angina attacks.
Option C: Sublingual nitroglycerin is administered to treat acute
angina, but the administration isn’t the first priority. Nitroglycerin
has been the standard for treating and preventing anginal pain for
more than 100 yr. Today it is available in many forms and is still the
cornerstone of antianginal therapy.
Option D: Although educating the client is important in care delivery,
it is not a priority when a client is compromised. Discuss the
pathophysiology of condition. Stress the need for preventing and
managing anginal attacks. Patients with angina need to learn why it
occurs and what they can do to control it. This is the focus of
therapeutic management to reduce the likelihood of myocardial
infarction and promote a healthy heart lifestyle.
