This protocol addresses the management of intussusception in a setting where operative intervention is under consideration. The approach is guided by the availability of paediatric surgical services.
The structured protocol involves an operative reduction procedure. The full regimen — including the sequence of interventions, the conditions under which each step is indicated, and the supporting management steps — is available in the complete protocol below.
Therefore, the enema is performed where paediatric surgery is available in case of the need for laparotomy.
