43
Q

Nasoduodenal
or nasojejunal
tubes

A

Nasoduodenal:
Tube extends from nose through the plylorus into
the duodenum;

peristalsis or videoflouroscopy

Nasojejunal:
nose
through pylorus
into the jejunum
and is usually
placed by
videoflouroscopy

Mostly for infants
and children at
risk for aspiration
and regurgitation

44
Q

Gastrostomy or
Percutaneous
Endoscopic
Gastrotomy (PEG)

A

PEG: Tube is
percutaneously
placed in the
stomach under
endoscopic
guidance, secured
by robber “bumpers” or
inflated ballon
catheter

Gastrostomy: Tube
is passed through
incision in
abdominal wall into
the stomach.

45
Q

Gastrostomy or
Percutaneous
Endoscopic
Gastrotomy (PEG)

Adv and Disadv

A

maximal
opportunity for
absorption;

natural delivery of
nutrients into the
stomach;

Eliminates nasal or
esophageal irritation

Tube is unobtrusive;

PEG feeding can be
started after approx.. 24 hours.

46
Q

Jejunnostomy or
Pecutaneous
Endoscopic
Jejunostomy (PEJ)

A

Types include needle
catheter placement, direct tube placement, and creation of jejuna
stoma that is
catheterized
intermittentl

PEJ: weighted feeding
tube passes
endoscopically through
as trostomy tube
(from PEG insertion) into
the duodenum;
Peristaltic action
advances tube into the
jejunum.

47
Q

Jejunnostomy or
Pecutaneous
Endoscopic
Jejunostomy (PEJ)

Adv and Disadv

A

Permit feeding in patients
with upper GI tract
obstruction, esophageal
reflex, ulcerated or
neoplastic disease of
stomach, impaired gastric
emptying;

early
postoperative feeding
possible (jejunum rapidly
resumes its function within
12-24 hours)

Surgical procedure is required. Ambulatory patients may findjejunal
feeding restrictive because of theneedforcontinuous infusion of formula.
