Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
The patient's mental status, status of lung sounds, and pertinent nursing care performed during the shift should all be included in an end-of-shift report. The patient's favorite TV shows and visitors that the patient had during the shift would not normally be included in the end-of-shift report.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Antivirals should be given around the clock to keep the therapeutic level of the ART at a constant level.
