During these attacks, some display breathing difficulties, choking sensation, become lightheaded, sweating and racing heart episodes. To handle these situations, nurses are supposed to keep their composure and provide the best care.

The nurses can also educate their patients about anxiety and equip them with relaxation techniques such as music, open communication and showing compassion.
