Theresa,
I remembered in our Med-Surg 1 when we were learning about MI, professor Teri Reynolds taught us a acroyname that helped the class to remember immediet treatment for MI, which is MONA and it stands for morphine, oxygen, nitroglycerin, and aspirin. It does not need to be in the same order, but it is want you administer for a patient that is experiencing MI.
After a patient is stable from a MI, it is very important to assess and provide intervention to the patient to prevent for future MI. Once a patient is stable from a post MI, the physician can do a exercise stress test for prognostic assessment without high-risk features, such as hypotension, CHF, recurrent chest pain or inability to exercise. By peforming the exercise stress test
