| description | Background and Objectives: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a common method for maintaining enteral nutrition in patients who, for any reason, have dysphagia for more than 30 days. With respect to widespread application of this method, the present study was carried out with the aim of determining its outcomes and complications.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted by Gastroenterology and Hepatology Diseases Research Center of Qom University of Medical Sciences using information of patients who underwent PEG tube placement in Qom Shahid Beheshti Hospital during 2014-2017. Data were analyzed by using Chi-square test.
Results: Out of 717 patients, 402 (56.07%), were male with the mean age of 47±8 years, and 315 subjects (43.93%), were female with the mean age of 53±11 years. The most common indication of PEG placement was cerebrovascular accident. Seventy-nine (11.01%) patients had complications, and the most observed complication was reported to be leakage (21.52%), which in most cases was delayed (in 3 month follow-up). Displacement of the PEG tube, obstruction, and infection or bleeding of the site, were expressed as common complications. There was also no significant difference between the two genders in terms of the incidence of complications, and mortality rate was reported 0 in the 3 month follow-up.
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, PEG placement can be a safe method for maintaining enteral nutrition with low rate of complications and mortality.
