Answer to Question 1

D
Pain is more acute with anxiety, so the nurse should attempt to relieve the patient's pain. Guided imagery is a useful technique to help an anxious patient manage stress. Progressive muscle relaxation induces relaxation by tensing and releasing various muscle groups. The patient should not be encouraged to be stoic.

Answer to Question 2

A
