SOLVED3206

Glyceryl Trinitrate (GTN) is a first line treatment for an Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), what are the main nursing considerations when administering GTN? 6 options: a) GTN is a vasodilator, therefore, a blood pressure and heart rate assessment should be conducted before administration. b) A side effect of GTN is severe headache, therefore paracetamol should be routinely administered at the same time as GTN. c) The uptake of GTN when given sublingually is slow, therefore, up to 6 sprays may need to be administered before a reduction of chest pain is felt. d) GTN can cause decreased respiratory effort, therefore, you should stay with your patient for 30 minutes following administration.
