Question

This is nursing. I had a question about lung surgery. There is something you are not supposed to do or give the patient for a certain number of hours after the surgery. It may be a drug or it may be some action. I am sorry that I do not have more details. I hope this is enough information. Can you tell me what it is and how many hours after the surgery that the nurse has to wait?
