Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client who has angina about nitroglycerin sublingual tablets. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets dilate cardiac blood vessels to increase oxygen delivery to the heart, reducing chest pain. This is achieved by relaxing smooth muscle in the blood vessels. Option A is incorrect because nitroglycerin does not dissolve blood clots. Option B is incorrect because the dosing regimen is typically one tablet every 5 minutes, up to 3 times. Option C is incorrect as nitroglycerin is not a first-line treatment for hypertension. Option E, F, and G are not provided.
