Answer:

(MI) Myocardial Infarction

Explanation:

Myocardial infarction (MI, heart attack) is produced when the velocity of blood flow decreases in the heart, which can lead to injury of the heart muscle. The symptoms of a heart attack include pressure, tightness or pain in the chest, shortness of breath, anxiety, nausea and vomiting.  MI can be prevented by healthy life habits such as plenty of sleep, healthy food habits, and regular exercise. A heart attack should be treated immediately by angioplasty, which is a medical procedure to unblock the arteries that transport blood to the heart.

an emergency department nurse is interviewing a client who is presenting with signs of an ischemic stroke that began 2 hours ago
steposvetlana [31]

An emergency room nurse is speaking with a patient who is exhibiting symptoms of an ischemic stroke that started two hours ago. The client mentions having had a cholecystectomy six weeks prior and using labetalol, digoxin, and warfarin. What element puts the patient's thrombolytic therapy at risk?

What is ischemic stroke?

An ischemic stroke is the loss of brain tissue (cerebral infarction) brought on by insufficient oxygen and blood flow to the brain as a result of an arterial blockage. An artery leading to the brain can get blocked, frequently by a blood clot or a fatty buildup brought on by atherosclerosis, leading to an ischemic stroke.

In patients with ischemic stroke, thrombolytic therapy must be started within three hours. If the patient underwent surgery within the last 14 days, she is not qualified for thrombolytic therapy. Labetalol and digoxin do not preclude thrombolytic treatment.
