The principle of flashing is to reheat room temperature or slightly warm food in a very hot oven for a short period of time. This enables food to reach its desired temperature while preventing further cooking. Foods can be flashed from 425 to 475 degrees F, anywhere from 2-10 minutes.
Post-operative care. After completion of surgery, the patient is transferred to the post anesthesia care unit and closely monitored. When the patient is judged to have recovered from the anesthesia, he/she is either transferred to a surgical ward elsewhere in the hospital or discharged home.
Things to avoid after surgery: In the post-operative period for at least six weeks you should avoid the following: 1) Lifting or carrying anything more than 5 pounds. Avoid reaching for things overhead. Note: Lifting and carrying put extra stress on your healing disc(s), and neck muscles and should therefore be avoided.
