“…The site was punctured with the gastropexy device (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) under aseptic conditions. [7][8][9] After both tips of the gastropexy device were confirmed to be intragastric, a wire snare loop was inserted through the first channel of the gastropexy device and the snare loop was opened. Then a suture was inserted through the second channel of the gastropexy device.…”

Severe bleeding sometimes occurs after percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) placement using a modified introducer method (direct method). We hypothesized that using a smaller diameter dilator rather than the 27F dilator contained in the commercial kit would reduce the incidence of this complication. The aim of this study was to compare procedurerelated complications with the use of 27F dilators and 20F/24F dilators. Consecutive patients who underwent the direct method for PEG placement were studied. The 27F dilator was used from

“…The stomach was distended and after transilluminating the abdominal wall, the site for the PEG re− ceived local anesthesia with an injection of 1 % lidocaine. For the gastropexy procedure, the stomach was punctured with the gastropexy device (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) under aseptic condi− tions [6,7,9]. After both tips of the gastropexy device were con− firmed to be intragastric, a wire snare loop was inserted through the first channel of the gastropexy device and opened.…”

“…A seal can be facilitated through gastropexy using T-fasteners at the time of placement and has been described. 52 Esophageal varices are another potential complication associated with advanced liver disease. Management decisions in these patients can prove quite difficult and should generally be managed on an individualized basis.…”

Enteral access is a cornerstone in the provision of nutrition support. Early and adequate enteral support has consistently demonstrated improved patient outcomes throughout a wide range of illness. In patients unable to tolerate oral intake, multiple options of delivery are available to the clinician. Access requires a multidisciplinary effort that involves nurses, dietitians, and physicians to be successful. These techniques and procedures are not without morbidity and even mortality. A comprehensive understanding of the appropriate management of these tubes and their inherent complications should be garnered by all those involved with nutrition support teams. This tutorial reviews available options for enteral access in addition to commonly encountered complications and their management.
