Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer verapamil to a client who is 2 days postmyocardial infarction. The nurse should monitor the client for which of the following outcomes as a therapeutic response to the medication?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Decreased anginal pain. Verapamil is a calcium channel blocker commonly used to treat angina, which is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. By dilating blood vessels and reducing the workload of the heart, verapamil helps decrease anginal pain. Monitoring for this outcome is crucial post-myocardial infarction to ensure adequate pain relief and improved cardiac function.

Choices A and B are incorrect as verapamil typically decreases heart rate and blood pressure.
Choice C is less relevant as verapamil is not primarily indicated for pulmonary congestion.
