1 / CCI Final Exam Updated Questions and Answers
(Verified Answers)
1.When developing a teaching plan for a 61-yr-old patient with multiple risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD), the nurse should focus primarily on the
a.family history of coronary artery disease.
b.elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) level.
c.increased risk associated with the patient's gender.
d.increased risk of cardiovascular disease as people age
.: ANS B
Because family history, gender, and age are nonmodifiable risk factors, the nurse should focus on the patient's LDL level. Decreases in
LDL will help reduce the patient's risk for developing CAD.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (application)
2.Which nursing intervention is likely to be most effective when assisting the patient with coronary artery disease to make appropriate dietary changes?
a.Inform the patient about a diet containing no saturated fat and minimal 2 / salt.
b.Help the patient modify favorite high-fat recipes by using monounsaturated oils.
c.Emphasize the increased risk for heart problems unless the patient makes the dietary changes.
d.Give the patient a list of low-sodium, low-cholesterol foods that should be included in the diet
.: ANS B
Lifestyle changes are more likely to be successful when consideration is given to the patient's values and preferences. The highest percentage of calories from fat should come from monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats. Although low-sodium and low-cholesterol foods are appropriate, providing the patient with a list alone is not likely to be successful in making dietary changes. Completely removing saturated fat from the diet is not a realistic expectation. Up to 7% of calories in the therapeutic lifestyle changes diet can come from saturated fat. Telling the patient about the increased risk without assisting further with strategies for dietary change is unlikely to be successful.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (analysis)
3.The nurse is admitting a patient who has chest pain. Which assessment data suggest that the pain is caused by an acute myocardial infarction (AMI)? 3 / a.The pain increases with deep breathing.
b.The pain has lasted longer than 30 minutes.
c.The pain is relieved after the patient takes nitroglycerin.
d.The pain is reproducible when the patient raises the arms
.: ANS B Chest pain that lasts for 20 minutes or more is characteristic of AMI. Changes 4 / in pain that occur with raising the arms or with deep breathing are more typical of musculoskeletal pain or pericarditis. Stable angina is usually relieved when the patient takes nitroglycerin.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (application)
4.Which information from a patient helps the nurse confirm the previous diagnosis of chronic stable angina?
a."The pain wakes me up at night."
b."The pain is level 3 to 5 (0 to 10 scale)."
c."The pain has gotten worse over the last week."
d."The pain goes away after a nitroglycerin tablet."
: ANS D
Chronic stable angina is typically relieved by rest or nitroglycerin
administration. The level of pain is not a consistent indicator of the type
of angina. Pain occurring at rest or with increased frequency is typical
of unstable angina.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand (comprehension)
5.After the nurse has finished teaching a patient about the use of sublingual nitroglycerin (Nitrostat), which patient statement indicates that the teaching has been effective?
a."I can expect nausea as a side effect of nitroglycerin."
