A nurse is preparing to administer Ringer's lactate by continuous IV infusion at 120 mL/hr. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 10 gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Choice A: Protrusion of the posterior bladder wall downward through the anterior vaginal wall is not the correct answer because it describes a different condition called cystocele. A cystocele occurs when the bladder pushes into the vagina due to weakened pelvic support structures.

Choice B: Bulging of the small intestine through the posterior vaginal wall is the correct answer because it describes an enterocele. Enterocele occurs when the small intestine slides into a pouch between the rectum and vagina due to weakened pelvic support structures.

Choice C: Descent of the uterus through the pelvic floor into the vagina is not the correct answer because it describes a different condition called uterine prolapse. Uterine prolapse occurs when the uterus drops down into or out of the vagina due to weakened pelvic support structures.

Choice D: Sagging of the rectum with the pressure exerted against the posterior vaginal wall is not the correct answer because it describes a different condition called rectocele. Rectocele occurs when the rectum bulges into or out of the vagina due to weakened pelvic support structures.

Choice A: Reports of itching, tingling, and pain in the genital area are the correct answer because they are common symptoms of genital herpes. Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). It can cause outbreaks of painful blisters or sores on or around the genitals, anus, or mouth. The blisters or sores usually heal within a few weeks, but the virus remains in the body and can reactivate at any time. Before an outbreak, some people may experience prodromal symptoms such as itching, tingling, or pain in the affected area.

Choice B: Painful urination with a penile discharge present is not the correct answer because it is more likely a symptom of another STI, such as gonorrhea or chlamydia. Gonorrhea and chlamydia are bacterial infections that can affect the urethra, cervix, rectum, or throat. They can cause symptoms such as burning or pain during urination, abnormal discharge from the penis or vagina, or bleeding between periods.

Choice C: Wart-like flesh-colored lesions on the scrotal area are not the correct answer because they are more likely a symptom of another STI, such as human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a viral infection that can cause genital warts or cervical cancer. Genital warts are small, soft, flesh-colored growths that can appear on or around the genitals, anus, or mouth. They may be flat, raised, or cauliflower-shaped.

Choice D: A chancre on the penis is not the correct answer because it is more likely a symptom of another STI, such as syphilis. Syphilis is a bacterial infection that can affect various organs and systems of the body. It has four stages: primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary. In the primary stage, syphilis causes a painless sore called a chancre that can appear on or around the genitals, anus, or mouth. The chancre usually heals within a few weeks, but the infection can progress to the next stages if left untreated.
