Hardening of the arteries is an example of heart disease, the leading cause of death in the Unites States. The condition in which arteries become narrowed because fat (cholesterol deposits ) is first deposited on the inside walls of the arteries is known as atherosclerosis. This may eventually  block the artery, causing the death of the tissue supplied by the artery and cause heart attack or stroke.

Answer:

b) "Your doctor can prescribe medications necessary to relieve pain; however; this treatment will not hasten death."

Explanation:

When the terminally ill patient or the patient's legal proxy requests palliative sedation, the use of pharmacologic agents to induce sedation or near sedation when symptoms have not responded to other management measures), the purpose is not to hasten the patient's death but to relieve intractable symptoms. Palliative sedation may be controversial, but it is not illegal. Total sedation is rarely indicated in hospice care to provide comfort. Continuous pain assessments are not indicated at this stage; the patient requires intervention/treatment.
