Question

which is a contraindication to the administration of aspirin for the management of a patient with acute coronary syndromes?
choose the correct answer
recent gastrointestinal bleeding
nausea
vomiting
shortness of breath

Explanation:

Aspirin can inhibit platelet aggregation and has an anti - thrombotic effect. However, it can also damage the gastric mucosa. In patients with recent gastrointestinal bleeding, using aspirin may aggravate the bleeding situation. Nausea, vomiting, and shortness of breath are not absolute contraindications for aspirin use in acute coronary syndromes. Nausea and vomiting may be symptoms of acute coronary syndromes themselves, and shortness of breath may be related to heart function problems in acute coronary syndromes, but they do not directly conflict with the mechanism of aspirin.

Answer:

Recent gastrointestinal bleeding
