Explanation
The client's record indicate that they are experiencing a myocardial infarction due to the elevated markers of inflammation, cardiac biomarkers and typical ECG findings.
Management of myocardial infarction includes oxygen supplementation, nitroglycerin, morphine sulphate, beta blocker such as metoprolol and aspirin/clopidogrel
Among the triggers of myocardial infarction can be cardiac dysrhythmias. This can be caused by electrolytes disturbances and hence the need to draw electrolytes.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Kale is high in vitamin K, which can antagonize the effects of warfarin. Warfarin works by inhibiting vitamin K-dependent clotting factors, so consuming large amounts of vitamin K-rich foods like kale can reduce the anticoagulant effect of warfarin, leading to a decrease in the INR.
Orange juice, beef stew and yogurt have no interactions with warfarin.
