ATI RN Fundamental Proctored Exam With NGN Graded -Nurselytic

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Herpes zoster. The presentation of linear clusters of fluid-containing vesicles with crusting is characteristic of herpes zoster, also known as shingles. This viral infection is caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, which initially causes chickenpox. The linear distribution of the vesicles along a dermatome is a key feature of herpes zoster. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Allergic reactions typically present with hives or itching, not vesicles with crusting. B: Ringworm presents as circular, red, scaly patches, not linear clusters of vesicles. C: Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease that manifests with a butterfly rash on the face, joint pain, and other systemic symptoms, not vesicles.
Therefore, the nurse should suspect herpes zoster based on the presentation described.
