A client has had an acute myocardial infarction (MI). The brother of the client has a history of angina. The client asks how he will know if his brother's pain is angina or if the brother is actually having an MI. Which statement is correct?

The statements were not given but the right answer here will be this statement: Rest and intake of nitroglycerin relieve chest pain with angina; they do not relieve chest pain with an MI.

Explanation:

Angina is simply the chest pain, when our heart is unable to receive enough blood supply. The pain occurs when the blood vessels in the heart are narrowed.

MI or Myocardial infarction is the blockage of coronary arteries due to some clot.

Nitroglycerin are extended release capsules that are given in the situation of angina and not in the case of MI. Nitroglycerin belongs to a group of class called as nitrates which helps to dilate the vessels.

Use of nitroglycerin relieve chest pain with angina, then rest.

Explanation:

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a disorder that commonly known as heart attack. Myocardial infarction (MI) occurs when the blood going to the heart muscle is blocked. The person with this kind of disorder will have pain in his or her chest, fatigue and abnormal heartbeat.

Similar condition of myocardial infarction which causes pain in the chest region is known as Angina and it is because of coronary artery disease.

To treat Angina, Nitroglycerin is usually used for the treatment but this is not the case for Myocardial infarction (MI) because Nitroglycerin can not be used to treat the disorder.
