Q3 ✅ ANSWER: Call for emergency assistance, monitor vital signs, and prepare for defibrillation if needed. ✅ RATIONALE FOR CORRECT ANSWER: In a suspected heart attack, immediate actions include calling for help, monitoring vitals, and preparing for defibrillation, as this is a life-threatening emergency.
Q4 ✅ ANSWER: High cholesterol, smoking, and a sedentary lifestyle. ✅ RATIONALE FOR CORRECT ANSWER: These are the primary modifiable risk factors for CAD, and nurses should educate patients about their impact on heart health.
Q5 ✅ ANSWER: Processed foods, canned soups, and salty snacks. ✅ RATIONALE FOR CORRECT ANSWER: These foods are high in sodium, which can exacerbate fluid retention in HF patients. Nurses should educate patients about reading labels and choosing low-sodium options.
