“…Sometimes, when PEG is inadvisable, a MAG (microlaparoscopic assisted gastrostomy) is preferred. Both procedures have been reported as suitable for day surgery, but the consensus conference proposed a more prudential approach if the surgeon is not well experienced with these procedures (LE: 3; GR: C) [ 102 – 108 ].…”

The Italian Society of Pediatric Surgery (SICP) together with The Italian Society of Pediatric Anesthesia (SARNePI) through a systematic analysis of the scientific literature, followed by a consensus conference held in Perugia on 2015, have produced some evidence based guidelines on the feasibility of day surgery in relation to different pediatric surgical procedures. The main aspects of the pre-operative assessment, appropriacy of operations and discharge are reported.

“…En ocasiones, cuando no es recomendable la PEG, se realizan MAG (gastrostomía asistida microlaparoscópica. Ambos procedimientos tienen soporte científico sobre su adecuación como cirugía ambulatoria, pero se debe ser prudente si el personal no tiene mucha experiencia con estos procedimientos (122)(123)(124)(125).…”

Regional Comparison of Enteral Nutrition–Related Admission Policies in Skilled Nursing Facilities

Background Nursing home admission policies are one driver of increased and earlier gastrostomy placement, a procedure that is not always medically or ethically indicated among patients needing short-term nutrition support. This important clinical decision should be based upon patient prognosis, goals, and needs. We compared nursing home enteral nutrition-related admission policies in New York City and other regions of the United States. We also explored motivations for these policies. Methods We conducted a telephone survey with skilled nursing facility administrators in New York City and a random sample of facilities throughout the United States about enteral nutrition-related admission policies. Survey data were matched with publically available Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services facility characteristics data. The relationship between facility location and admission policies was described with regression models. Reasons for these policies were thematically analyzed. Results New York City nursing homes were significantly less likely to admit patients with nasogastric feeding tubes than nursing homes nationwide, controlling for facility characteristics (OR=0.111, 95% CI=0.032, 0.344). Reasons for refusing nasogastric tubes fell into five categories: Safety, capacity, policy, perception of appropriate level of care, and patient quality of life. Conclusion Our findings indicate that enteral nutrition-related admission policies vary greatly between nursing homes in New York City and nationwide. Many administrators cited safety and policy as factors guiding their institutional policies and practices, despite a lack of evidence. This gap in research, practice, and policy has implications for quality and cost of care, length of hospital stay, and patient morbidity and mortality.
