B

Answer to Question 2

The goal is to allow the heart to rest and heal. Nursing interventions include the following. Foods should not be extreme in temperatures, hot or cold. The diet should be easy to chew and digest, with little roughage. Chewing and the activity of the gastrointestinal tract necessary for metabolism of fiber cause extra work for the heart. Types of fats will be limited. Energy needs are based on the individual. Sodium and caffeine will be restricted.
