Question

The nurse is caring for a client with mild mitral regurgitation who has just been prescribed an angiotensin-converting enzyme as well as a beta-blocker. The nurse, in preparing to teach the client, is aware that the beta-blocker is given for what reason? Beta-blockers are given to decrease the chest pain the client has been experiencing. Beta-blockers are given to reduce the client's heart rate. Beta-blockers are used to reduce preload, which helps preserve the ventricles pumping ability. Beta-blockers are given to reduce fatigue that this disorder causes.
