On physical examination, there is ecchymosis overlying the anterior aspect of the knee, unhindered range of motion between 0-115 degrees, appears to be ligamentous intact and the patient could perform a straight leg raise without assistance. Radiographs showed a nondisplaced, transverse patella fracture. Which of the following is the best next step in management?
