The document describes nursing care for patients in the immediate and late postoperative periods. In the immediate postoperative period, patients are monitored every 15 minutes in the post-anesthesia recovery unit to stabilize their vital signs and control the effects of anesthesia. In the late postoperative period, the nurse monitors vital signs every hour, initiates food intake, and removes intravenous fluids while watching for the surgical wound and other complications such as constipation and insomnia.
