Safety & Professionalism第 94 / 100 题
Which instructions should a patient receive before a scheduled exercise stress test?
a.Eat a large meal beforehand and drink coffee for energy
b.Wear dress shoes and take all usual medications without mentioning them
c.Avoid food, caffeine, and tobacco for the hours before the test as directed, wear comfortable clothing and walking shoes, and review current medications with the provider
d.Stop all medications for one week before the test
解析
Standard stress test preparation includes fasting and avoiding caffeine and tobacco for the period the facility specifies, wearing comfortable two-piece clothing and supportive walking shoes, and reviewing medications with the provider since drugs such as beta blockers affect the heart rate response. Eating heavily or drinking coffee alters the results. Dress shoes are unsafe on a treadmill, and patients never stop medications on their own.
