[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. In this given situation, good nursing care is of paramount importance in ensuring the patients good recovery. Feeding through Rules (nasogastric) tube should be done every two hours. Please ensure the patient is at 30-45 degree elevation and not in supine position during feeding. There should be adequate protein in the diet as per dietician advice. Regular position change should be done every two hours.DVT stockings should be used to prevent clotting of blood in the veins. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
