A patient admitted for diagnostic tests is frightened of hospital procedures and is nervous about the possible outcome of the tests. She states that her mouth is dry and her heart is pounding. Her blood pressure is 168/78 mm Hg (her usual blood pressure is 140/80 mm Hg), pulse is 112 beats/min, and respirations are 22 breaths/min. The nurse will recognize that these signs and symptoms are:
a.   indicative of serious, acute health problems and should be reported to the physician immediately.
b.   most likely related to the disease for which the patient is admitted to the hospital.
c.   the effects of the parasympathetic nervous system and can be ignored.
d.   the effects of the sympathetic nervous system that can negatively affect the patient’s health.
