A client has had a series of diagnostic tests, although he protests that nothing is wrong with him
  except a chest cold that he can't shake off. The diagnostic tests reveal a mass in the left upper lobe
  of the client's lung.
 
  He is scheduled to undergo a biopsy. When the nurse explains the procedure to
  him, he seems to have difficulty grasping what she is saying and asks questions such as What do
  you mean I'm going to have surgery? What are they going to do? His voice is tremulous. His
  respirations are noticeably rapid at 28 breaths/min, and his pulse is 110 beats/min. The nurse should
  assess the client's level of anxiety as
  a. mild.
  b. moderate.
  c. severe.
  d. panic.
