Question 1 of 5
The nurse expects a patient with angina pectoris to
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Patients with angina pectoris commonly experience symptoms that are similar to indigestion after eating a heavy meal. This is because angina is caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles due to coronary artery disease. The discomfort from angina can be triggered by activities that increase the heart's workload, such as eating a large meal that requires increased blood flow to the digestive system. The pain or discomfort associated with angina can feel like a squeezing sensation in the chest, often described by patients as similar to heartburn or indigestion. Therefore, the nurse can expect a patient with angina pectoris to experience feelings of indigestion after eating a heavy meal. It is important for healthcare providers to recognize these symptoms to provide appropriate care and treatment for angina.
