Question 1 of 5
The nurse is describing angina to a family member of a client recently diagnosed with the condition. Which characterization of angina is the most appropriate?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Chest pain on physical exertion or emotional stress. Angina is characterized by chest pain or discomfort that occurs when the heart muscle doesn't receive enough oxygen-rich blood. This pain typically occurs during physical exertion or emotional stress when the heart needs more oxygen. Slow heart rate and difficulty standing (
A), sudden weakness with severe headache (
B), and difficulty breathing and increased temperature (
C) are not characteristic symptoms of angina. Angina is specifically related to the heart and its blood supply, not other bodily functions.
