Summary
Identifying at-risk nursing students for NCLEX success is crucial. This study explored using the HESI Exit Exam (E2) as a benchmark to guide remediation for students needing academic support.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Student Assessment
Background:
- Remediation improves NCLEX success for students with academic deficits.
- Lack of specific benchmarks to identify at-risk students for NCLEX failure.
- The HESI Exit Exam (E2) is a validated tool for measuring NCLEX preparedness.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the HESI Exit Exam (E2) as a benchmark for student progression.
- To determine the E2's utility as a guide for remediation strategies.
Main Methods:
- Utilized HESI Exit Exam (E2) data from senior nursing students.
- Analyzed E2 scores to identify potential benchmarks for NCLEX preparedness.
- Correlated E2 performance with the need for academic remediation.
Main Results:
- The HESI Exit Exam (E2) demonstrated potential as a benchmark for identifying students needing remediation.
- Specific E2 score ranges may indicate a higher risk for NCLEX failure.
- Targeted remediation based on E2 results can support student success.
Conclusions:
- The HESI Exit Exam (E2) can serve as a valuable tool for proactive student support in nursing programs.
- Implementing E2-based benchmarks can optimize remediation efforts for improved NCLEX outcomes.
- Further research is warranted to establish definitive E2 benchmarks for NCLEX risk assessment.

01:11Guidelines for Writing Outcome
When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care evaluation by...

01:15Nursing Implementation
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

01:23Methods of Documentation V: CBE
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

01:30Heart Failure IV: Classification and Diagnostic Evaluation
Heart failure can be classified in various ways, with the most common classifications based on physical activity limitations, disease progression, severity, and treatment strategies.The Functional Classification of Heart Failure divides patients into four categories based on physical activity limitation due to symptom burden.Class I: Patients in this class have cardiac disease but no physical activity limitations. Ordinary activities like walking, climbing stairs, or routine tasks do not cause...
01:17Introduction to Language of Pathophysiology ll
This lesson explores key terms that describe how diseases progress, their outcomes, and their distribution in populations.Diagnostic tests identify diseases and monitor treatment. These include blood and urine tests, biopsies, imaging (X-ray, MRI), and detection of infectious agents.Remission is a reduction or disappearance of symptoms.Exacerbation refers to the worsening of symptoms, such as increased wheezing during an asthma attack.A precipitating factor triggers an acute episode, while a...
