Question 1 of 5

A patient who has recently had an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) ambulates in the hospital hallway. Which data would indicate to the nurse that the patient should stop and rest?

Correct Answer: An increase in heart rate from 66 to 98 beats/min indicates that the heart is working harder, which could be a sign of stress or exertion. This is a significant increase and could indicate that the patient needs to rest. O2 saturation, respiratory rate, and BP changes are within normal ranges.
