During Preoperative Preparation for a Patient Scheduled for an Abdominal-Perineal

During preoperative preparation for a patient scheduled for an abdominal-perineal resection, the nurse will

A) give IV antibiotics starting 24 hours before surgery to reduce the number of bowel bacteria.
B) teach the patient that activities such as sitting at the bedside will be started the first postoperative day.
C) instruct the patient that another surgery in 8 to 12 weeks will be used to create an ileal-anal reservoir.
D) administer polyethylene glycol lavage solution (GoLYTELY) to ensure that the bowel is empty before the surgery.
