Question 1 of 5
Which of the following options gives a nurse the most accurate diagnostic picture of a cardiac issue?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cardiac Catheterization. This procedure provides direct visualization and measurement of the heart's chambers, valves, and blood vessels, offering the most accurate diagnostic information for cardiac issues. Echocardiogram (
A) provides imaging of the heart but may not offer as detailed information as cardiac catheterization. Chest X-Ray (CXR) (
C) can show heart size and shape but lacks specificity for diagnosing cardiac issues. Electrocardiogram (ECG) (
D) only records the heart's electrical activity and may not provide a comprehensive diagnostic picture.
Therefore, cardiac catheterization is the most accurate option for diagnosing cardiac issues.
