19. Choice B is the correct answer. This patient has a surgical abdomen and has some unstable vital signs. Manual reduction via barium enema is only indicated if the patient is stable without signs of peritonitis. The patients heart rate is too high to blame just on pain an morphine and zofran are not going to improve the clinical picture. Just admitting this patient for observation is not aggressive enough because this child needs attention immediately.
