Question 1 of 5

A client with a history of angina reports the onset of chest pain. The nurse determines that the heart rate is 104 beats/minute and the blood pressure is 138/86 mm Hg. A transdermal nitroglycerin patch was applied 30 minutes ago to the right upper chest. Which action should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Sublingual nitroglycerin provides rapid relief for acute chest pain, complementing the sustained effect of the transdermal patch. Adding another patch risks overdose, withholding delays relief, and the patch’s slow onset doesn’t address acute pain.
