Core Tip |
Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrotomy (PEG) tubes are often placed for nutrition for dysphagia following a stroke. The 2011 ASGE guidelines recommend delaying PEG tube placement for two weeks, although this guideline is based on weak evidence. There is increasing demand for early PEG tube placement to meet requirements for timely discharge to rehab facilities. This is the first study to compare outcomes such as mortality or complications of PEG tubes based on timing of placement in stroke patients. Early PEG tube placement did not result in a higher rate of mortality or complications and significantly decreased hospital length of stay. |
