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.
