Transgastrostomal Endoscopies

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Esophagogastroduodenoscopies

In brief

Upper GI endoscopies are commonly done by inserting the endoscope through the patient's mouth. When a patient has a gastrostomy feeding tube, the endoscope can be inserted through the stomach port opening. The aim is to prove this modification would lead to various health benefits, including need for lighter anesthesia, rapid recovery time and fewer anesthesia related adverse reactions.
