    A nursing is planning care for an adolescent who is postoperative following scoliosis repair with Harrington rod instrumentation. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Protective isolation is not necessary for this client. B. Log rolling every 4 hours maintains spinal alignment and prevents strain on the surgical area. C. PCA pumps are often used for pain control after major surgeries like spinal instrumentation. D. Keeping the head of the bed at a low angle (no more than 30°) helps reduce strain on the spine.
