The nurse takes the NCLEX-PN examination and submits the answer to the current question when the screen suddenly goes blank. The nurse realizes this means:
 
  1. The exam is over.
  2. The computer lost power, and the candidate must start the exam again.
  3. The candidate failed the exam.
  4. The candidate hit the wrong button.

Question 2

When writing a nursing care plan for a client who has been diagnosed with herpes genitalis, which of the following long-term goals would the nurse develop?
 
  1. No evidence of any outbreaks of herpes for at least five years
  2. Duration of herpes outbreaks shortened and viral shedding reduced
  3. Laboratory results indicate the herpesvirus is cured.
  4. Herpes genitalis in complete remission, with increased viral shedding

Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: When the exam is complete, the screen will go blank without warning. This is normal.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: The goal of treatment for clients with herpes genitalis is fewer outbreaks that last for shorter periods of time due to rapid intervention, and reduced viral shedding that will minimize risk of contagion to sexual partners. Herpes is not cured, and outbreaks are likely during times of stress, so answer options 1 and 3 are unreasonable expectations. The goal is reduced, not increased, viral shedding.
