Correct Answer: 1,3,4,5
Rationale 1: Administering analgesics as needed, encouraging leg exercises every 2 hours, encouraging the patient to cough and deep-breathe every 24 hours, and encouraging the use of breathing, relaxation, and distraction all address the patient's nursing care needs, which are similar to those of other surgical patients.

Rationale 4: Administering analgesics as needed, encouraging leg exercises every two hours, encouraging the patient to cough and deep-breathe every 24 hours, and encouraging the use of breathing, relaxation, and distraction all address the patient's nursing care needs, which are similar to those of other surgical patients.
