Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant that can also be used to treat neuropathic pain. Turning and repositioning every two hours, applying sequential compression devices, and performing passive range of motion can help prevent complications such as pressure ulcers and muscle atrophy, but they do not directly address neuropathic pain.
