Answer to Question 1

It is important to recognize and address Mrs. R.'s anxiety. Reassure her that he is getting excellent
care and he will be closely monitored. Explain that no one can tell whether he has had a heart attack
until the test results come back. Thank her for the additional information, and tell her you will pass it along to the physician. Tell her that he is going to need her help when he goes home so that he can
begin to live a healthier lifestyle.

Answer to Question 2

 Tell him you want him to notify you of any unusual or uncomfortable feelings that develop.
 It is possible that he could develop an MI even if he has not already had one. He could also develop
lethal dysrhythmias or cardiac arrest.
