Question 1 of 5
Which patient statement would help the nurse confirm the previous diagnosis of chronic stable angina?
Correct Answer: Chronic stable angina is characterized by chest pain that is relieved by rest or nitroglycerin. Therefore, if the patient's pain goes away with a nitroglycerin tablet, it would help confirm a diagnosis of chronic stable angina. Pain level, worsening pain, or nighttime pain are less specific.
