Answer:

Ambulation and Ostomy

Step-by-step explanation:

This is to restore peristalsis. This is because decreased mobility will result in reduced peristalsis. Early ambulation in the patient after abdominal surgery will help to restore peristalsis. Also, for Ostomy, using a nasogastric tube in postoperative patients with acute abdominal pain will prevent aspiration, decompress the stomach, and prevent gastric dilation.
