Question 1 of 5
A 46-year-old African-American man is in an outpatient clinic for a physical examination. His BP is 126/84 mm Hg, his BMI is 24, and he reports no previous medical problems. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Provide information about how to reduce risk factors of hypertension. The rationale is as follows: The patient is at risk for developing hypertension based on his age, ethnicity, and BP reading. Providing information on reducing risk factors such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, stress management, and avoiding tobacco and excess alcohol can help prevent the development of hypertension. This proactive approach aligns with preventive healthcare measures.
Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because scheduling the next appointment for 1 year from now does not address the potential risk of hypertension, a PSA test is unrelated to the patient's current presentation, and weight loss is not indicated as the patient's BMI is within the normal range.
