Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
People with genital herpes should either avoid sexual contact or use a condom to decrease the danger of spreading the virus. Because of the possible association with cervical cancer, any female with genital herpes should have yearly Pap tests for the rest of her life. Penicillin is an antibiotic and is not used to treat genital herpes, which is caused by a virus. Acyclovir (Zovirax) is an oral medication for genital herpes.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
If the infant is asleep, the nurse should auscultate the heart, lungs, and abdomen first while the baby is quiet. The nurse performs the assessment in a head-to-toe manner, leaving the most traumatic procedures, such as examination of the ears, nose, mouth, and throat, until last.
