What are gastrostomy tubes used for?
A gastrostomy tube, often called a G tube, is a surgically placed
device used to give direct access to your child's stomach for
supplemental feeding, hydration or medicine. G tubes are used for a
variety of medical conditions, but the most common use is for
feedings to enhance your child's nutrition.
Is a gastrostomy tube the same as a feeding tube?
A percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a procedure to place
a feeding tube. These feeding tubes are often called PEG tubes or G
tubes. The tube allows you to receive nutrition directly through
your stomach. This type of feeding is also known as enteral feeding
or enteral nutrition.
Why would someone need a gastrostomy?
A gastrostomy is a surgical procedure used to insert a tube, often
referred to as a "G-tube", through the abdomen and into the
stomach. Gastrostomy is used to provide a route for tube feeding if
needed for four weeks or longer, and/or to vent the stomach for air
or drainage.
