To reduce cardiac workload in a client with myocarditis, maintain the client on bed rest.

<h3>What is myocarditis?</h3>

Myocarditis is a condition in which there is inflammation of the heart muscle or myocardium.
Inflammation affects the ability of the heart to pump blood to other organs.
The symptoms include chest pain, shortness of breath, etc.
The client should be in bed rest to reduce workload on heart and thus help in healing.
The head should be elevated to promote breathing and blood flow.
The main cause of myocarditis is viral infection. It may also be caused due to bacteria, fungi and some parasites.
Medications which improve heart function should be taken.
In extreme cases, a device can be used to improve functioning of the heart.

Answer:

The answer is letter A, sleepiness.

Explanation:

The "Fight-or-Flight Response" is a response of an organism to stress. When this happens, the body shows several signs and symptoms which involve cool and pale skin, sweating, dry mouth, dilated pupils, etc.

Under stress, the body releases a hormone called "adrenaline." This hormone is responsible for a temporary heart rate increase.

The breathing or respiratory rate also increases. This is the body's coping mechanism in order to increase "oxygen" intake. The oxygen is used by the muscles as a preparation to fight or flee from the situation.

Thus, letter A is the only incorrect effect of the fight-or-flight response.
