Question 1 of 5
The nurse is evaluating the therapeutic effects of nitroglycerin transdermal patches prescribed to a client 6 months ago. Which of the following statements by the client would indicate that the medication is effective?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. The statement "I am tolerating exercise without pain on a regular basis" indicates that the nitroglycerin transdermal patches are effective in managing angina. Nitroglycerin works by dilating blood vessels to increase oxygen supply to the heart, allowing the client to exercise without experiencing chest pain. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the therapeutic effects of nitroglycerin in managing angina symptoms. Blood pressure improvement, absence of anginal attacks, and reduction in headaches could be related to other factors and do not specifically indicate the effectiveness of nitroglycerin in managing angina.
