Aim: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a common method for patients who cannot be oral-fed. This study aims to evaluate the demographic characteristics, indication of PEG and early ( days) complications of PEG patients performed in our hospital over four years. Material and Method: The study is a retrospective study. This study includes patients who underwent percutaneous endoscopy gastrostomy between 2016-2020 in the endoscopy unit and intensive care units in the general surgery clinic of our hospital. The age, gender, comorbidities, length of hospital stay, PEG indications, the day of hospitalization, the complications, if any, and the day the complications developed were recorded on the computer. Complications before 30 days were divided into groups as early complications and those developing after 30 days of late complications. Results: A total of 207 patients the PEG procedure. When PEG indications were examined, it was observed that the most common cause was cerebrovascular events with a rate of 44.93%. Complications were observed in 19 (9.18%) of the patients after the procedure. 68.42% (13) of complications were seen before 30 days. In the evaluation, which was grouped as non-complicated and complicated patients, no significant difference was observed between age, gender, systemic diseases, time to PEG procedure, endoscopic or surgical opening, and mortality rates. Conclusion: Although PEG is a more invasive method compared to other methods in terms of enteral nutrition, it is the most preferred feeding method due to its low complication rate, fast and easy application, and low cost. PEG is recommended for eligible patients who are scheduled for long-term enteral nutrition.

“…In the geriatric age group and in pa- tients susceptible to infection, abscess or peritonitis may develop rarely with mortality. In the study conducted by Çakır et al, [9] who applied prophylactic antibiotics before the procedure, the rate of peristomal wound infection was found to be 7.1%. In our study, 7 (6.4%) patients developed peristomal wound infection.…”

Introduction: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a method used for long-term enteral feeding in patients with normal gastrointestinal function and who cannot be fed orally. In this study, we aimed to present the demographic and clinical features of our patients who underwent PEG. Materials and Methods: The records of patients who had PEG tube inserted in the endoscopy unit or intensive care units in our hospital between August 2017 and December 2019 were reviewed retrospectively in this study. Results: A total of 108 patients underwent a PEG catheter between August 2017 and December 2019. 58 (53.7%) of the cases were male, and 50 (46.2%) were female. It was observed that the PEG procedure was performed most frequently in patients with cerebrovascular disease. No major complications were observed in any case after the procedure. Early complications were observed in 15 (13.8%) patients and late complications in seven (6.4%) patients. Conclusion: PEG is a safe and effective enteral feeding method. It is the type of nutrition that should be applied for long-term enteral nutrition in appropriate patients.

“…PEG işlemi sonrası peristomal enfeksiyon sık görülen bir komplikasyon olup farklı çalışmalarda %5-25 oranında bildirilmektedir. İşlem öncesi proflaktik antibiyotik uygulanan Çakır ve arkadaşlarının yaptığı çalışmada bu oran %7,1 olarak bulunmuştur [5]. Çalışmamızda ise 5 hastada peristomal enfeksiyon gelişmiş olup oranı %4,4 idi.…”

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the results and experiences of the patients who received percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). Methods:A total of 113 patients who admitted to the Dicle University Medical Faculty , Department of Gastroenterology between January 2012 and December 2014 and in whom received PEG was performed. The patients were assessed in terms of indications, complications and results.Results: Among these patients, 70 (61.9%) were male and 40 (38.1%) were female. Though 8 (7%) patients had head, neck and esophageal cancer; 105 (93%) patients had primer or seconder neurological disorders. After the PEG, any serious complication was seen in patients. Wound infections were encountered in five patients (4.4%) and the rate of minor complications was found to be 9.7%. The risk of complications was higher in patients over sixty years and men (p values of 0.049 and 0.022). Conclusion:Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy, a simple and safe method of enteral nutrition with a low complication rate, should be the first choice when extended period enteral nutrition is required. There is increased risk of complications in elderly males.
