The nurse educates a client with a suspected myocardial infarction (mi) about the blood test to evaluate troponin i levels. the nurse knows the education has been successful when the client says:

"This test is specific to components found in my heart muscle."

Explanation:

Myocardial infarction is a consequence of the obstruction of a coronary artery by a blood clot on the fat plaque that was in its wall, making it impossible for a sufficient amount of blood to reach that area of the heart muscle.

When a patient is suspected that he or she may have a myocardial infarction, he or she often performs a blood test to evaluate the levels of troponin I, an enzyme found in the blood. of the myocardium. It is important for the patient to be informed about the test to understand what is happening, so it is important for the nursing staff to explain to the client that this test is specific to components found in the heart muscle.
