Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing a community health program for adults at risk for cardiovascular disease. Which of the following should the nurse include as a modifiable risk factor?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Cigarette smoking. Smoking is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease as individuals can choose to quit smoking, reducing their risk of heart disease. Smoking damages blood vessels, increases blood pressure, and causes plaque buildup in arteries, leading to heart problems.
A: Diabetes mellitus is a non-modifiable risk factor, although management of diabetes can help reduce cardiovascular risk.
B: Family history of cardiac disease is a non-modifiable risk factor.
C: Increasing age is a non-modifiable risk factor as aging is a natural process.
In summary, the nurse should focus on educating about modifiable risk factors like smoking to prevent cardiovascular disease.
