The best answer for the nurse to give is "You will be sedated but not asleep." Persons who are undergoing cardiac catheterization will receive a sedative but are not put to sleep. Their cooperation is needed during the procedure.

<h3>What is cardiac catheterization?</h3>
  • During a cardiac catheterization procedure, a thin, flexible tube (catheter) is directed into a blood vessel to the heart in order to identify or treat certain heart disorders, such as blocked arteries or irregular heartbeats.
  • The most common reason for performing this operation is to learn more about the heart or its blood arteries.
  • Additionally, it could be carried out to determine whether you require heart surgery or to treat specific heart diseases.
  • Cardiovascular catheterization may be used by your doctor to identify or assess: Cardiomyopathy or congestive heart failure causes.
  • It takes a week or less for full recovery. For 24 to 48 hours, keep the region dry where the catheter was implanted. The recuperation process is frequently quicker if the catheter was placed into your arm.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

This is an example of a flashback, associating a red car with an event that the man found to be traumatic. It might also be an example of post traumatic stress.

Explanation:

The events surrounding a trauma can become imprinted in the psyche. In this case, the first image the man observed after the crash, was a red car. Cognitively, he knows that the red car was just an incidental item. Emotionally imprinted though, is the image of the red car. The unconscious mind observes the red car, and makes a connection, and brings about anxiety and heightened awareness. This reaction is designed to avoid further trauma and discomfort.
