chat: "I have told the pt the etiologies of his presenting problem
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
are: 1) exacerbation of his chronic emphysema and 2) the new
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
diagnosis of lung cancer. The onset of both was contributed to by
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
his longstanding smoking". The patient asks the nurse for more
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
information about his illness. Which explanation, by the nurse, |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

ANSWERS ✔✔" The coughing up of blood is caused by a |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
worsening of a dz you've had for a long time plus a new prolbem |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
