When the pressure stays at higher readings, damage can be caused to the heart and can also lead to additional health problems. Another word for high blood pressure is hypertension. The blood is carried to all body parts from the heart by the arteries. The harder the heart pumps the higher the blood pressure (Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention [CDC], 2020).

Metastasis following the surgical resection of primary site breast cancer is a medical issue, which plagues mastectomy patients.

The presentation illustrated the anesthetic techniques and pharmacological agents utilized, which either mitigate or potentiate a patient's risk for metastasis. The survey assessed for a willingness to change …
