ممرض يعلّم مريضاً كيف يتعرف على علامات الاحتشاء المبكرة. أي عبارة تدل على فهم صحيح؟

A nurse teaches a client to recognise early MI warning signs. Which statement shows correct understanding?

1. I drive myself fast to hospital because it is quicker
2. I wait until morning to see if sleep eases the pain
3. If pain lasts over 5 minutes I call an ambulance, not drive
4. I take a strong painkiller and wait two hours before calling

Answer: C) If pain lasts over 5 minutes I call an ambulance, not drive. Calling an ambulance allows assessment and an ECG en route and pre-alerting the PCI centre. Driving oneself is dangerous because of possible collapse or arrhythmia.
