Abstract
Background/Aims Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is usually performed on patients with chronic underlying diseases in the general ward (GW). This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of PEG performed on patients in the surgical intensive care unit (SICU) compared with those of PEG performed in the GW.
Methods The medical records of 27 patients in the SICU and 263 in the GW, who underwent PEG between January 2013 and July 2017, were retrospectively reviewed.
Results The median age of the 27 SICU patients was 66 years, and their median body mass index was 21.1 kg/m2. In the SICU group, the median baseline Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score was 4, and the median Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score was 16. The median interval between surgery and PEG in SICU patients was 30 days, with a PEG failure rate of 3.7%. Acute complications in SICU patients included bleeding (7.4%) and ileus (11.1%), while chronic complications included aspiration pneumonia (7.4%) and tube obstruction (3.7%). The rates of acute and chronic complications did not differ significantly between the SICU and GW groups. The 30-day mortality rate was 14.8% in SICU patients and 5.3% in GW patients (p=0.073).
Conclusions PEG is a safe and feasible method of enteral feeding for critically ill patients who require ICU care after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although all types of endoscopic procedures harbor risk of aspiration, little is understood about risk factors for aspiration pneumonia developing after endoscopic hemostasis. AIMS The present study aimed to identify risk factors for aspiration pneumonia after endoscopic hemostasis. METHODS Charts from consecutive patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding that had been treated by endoscopic hemostasis at a single center between January 2004 and January 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Patient information and clinical characteristics including cause of hemorrhage, established prognostic scales, laboratory data, comorbidities, medications, duration of endoscopic hemostasis, vital signs, sedative use, and the main operator during the procedure were compared between patients who developed aspiration pneumonia and those who did not. RESULTS Aspiration pneumonia developed in 24 (4.8%) of 504 patients after endoscopic hemostasis. Endotracheal intubation was required for three of them, and one died of the complication. Multivariate analysis revealed that age >75 years (odds ratio (OR) 4.4; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.5-13.6; p = 0.0073), procedural duration >30 min (OR 5.6; 95% CI 1.9-18.2; p = 0.0023), hemodialysis (OR 3.6; 95% CI 1.2-11; p = 0.024), and a history of stroke (OR 3.8; 95% CI 1-14; p = 0.041) were independent risk factors for developing aspiration pneumonia. CONCLUSIONS Specific risk factors for aspiration pneumonia after endoscopic hemostasis were identified. Endoscopists should carefully consider aspiration pneumonia when managing older patients who are on hemodialysis, have a history of stroke, and undergo a longer procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trauma patients frequently require long-term enteral access because of injuries to the head, neck, or gastrointestinal tract. Noninvasive methods for gastrostomy placement include percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) and percutaneous radiographic gastrostomy (PRG). In patients with recent trauma laparotomy, PEG placement is felt to be relatively contraindicated because of the concerns about altered anatomy. We hypothesize that there is no increased rate of complications related to PEG placement in patients with trauma laparotomy compared with those without laparotomy provided that basic safety principles are followed. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study evaluates all percutaneous gastrostomies (both PEG and PRG) placed in trauma patients admitted at a level I trauma center between January 1, 2007 and March 30, 2010. The electronic medical records of the 354 patients were reviewed through 30 days after procedure, and patients were further subdivided by the history of laparotomy. Statistical analysis was performed using Fisher exact test or two-tailed t-test, as appropriate. RESULTS In patients with no prior trauma laparotomy, successful PEG placement occurred in 92.2% of patients, the remainder underwent PRG placement. Of patients with prior trauma laparotomy, 82.4% had successful PEG placement. Two percent of attempted PEG placements failed in patients with no previous trauma laparotomy, whereas 11.8% failed in patients with recent trauma laparotomy. The overall complication rate was 2.0%, with no recorded complications in patients with trauma laparotomy before PEG placement. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that surgeons should not consider recent trauma laparotomy a contraindication to PEG placement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective analysis characterizing patients receiving tube feeding following percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement between 2004 and 2012 at Erciyes University Hospital in Turkey. SUBJECTS/METHODS Patients above the age of 18 years who required long-term enteral tube feeding were studied. All PEGs were performed using the pull-through technique by one experienced endoscopist. Demographic, clinical outcomes and PEG-related complication data were collected. RESULTS Of the 128 subjects studied, 91 were men (71%) and 37 were women (29%). The mean age of this patient population was 54 ± 19 years. The most common reason for PEG tube insertion was the inability to consume oral diet due to complications of cerebrovascular disease (27%), while cerebral hypoxia, occurring after nonneurological medical disorders, was the second most common indication (23%). A total of 70 patients (55%) had chronic comorbidities, with hypertension being the most common (20%). The most common procedure-related complication was insertion-site bleeding, which occurred in 4% of patients. Long-term complications during 1 year were insertion-site cellulitis, gastric contents leakage and peristomal ulceration, which occurred in 14%, 5% and 0.5% of patients, respectively. There were no PEG insertion-related mortalities; 1-year mortality was unrelated to the indication for PEG tube insertion. CONCLUSIONS PEG tube insertion was a safe method to provide enteral access for nutrition support in this hospitalized patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insertion of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is an increasingly common procedure in patients with nutritional needs and dysphagia. Better knowledge of rates and patterns of complications after PEG might influence decision-making. MATERIAL AND METHODS The objective was to prospectively evaluate the rate of six pre-defined complications (leakage, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, fever and peristomal infection) and mortality occurring within 2 months after PEG in an unselected sample of patients. All patients (n = 484) who had a PEG inserted at the hospital during the study period were included. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to estimate mortality over the first 60 days following PEG and Fisher's exact test was used to test equality of proportions. RESULTS Of the 484 patients included, 85 (18%) died within 2 months after PEG insertion. The risk of early mortality was higher in the group with neurological disease than in the group with a tumor as indication (p < 0.001). After excluding mortality, the overall complication rates at 2 weeks and 2 months were 39% and 27%, respectively. The most common complications within 2 weeks were abdominal pain (13%), peristomal infection (11%), diarrhea (11%) and leakage (10%). At 2 months the most frequent complications were diarrhea (10%), leakage (8%) and peristomal infection (6%). CONCLUSIONS In the short-term perspective, there is a substantial risk of complications, including mortality, after PEG insertion. This should be considered during clinical decision-making and when informing the patients and caregivers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is considered the preferred route for long-term enteral feeding. The aim of this study was to determine predictors of an increased mortality risk after PEG insertion. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted during a 13-year period in the gastroenterology department of Erlangen University Hospital. The authors completed a questionnaire with details of demographic data, diagnosis, indication for PEG, type of tube, and cause of death. Patients were contacted regularly at scheduled appointments. RESULTS In total, 787 patients (574 male [72.9%]) underwent PEG placement by the pull technique. The main underlying disease was malignant (75.6%). By the end of the study period, 614 patients had died. The average survival time was 720 days. The 30-, 60-, 90-day and 1-, 3-, and 5-year mortality rates amounted to 6.5%, 9.8%, 13%, 32.1%, 59.3%, and 69.8%, respectively. Predictive factors of increased 30-day mortality were higher age, lower body mass index (BMI), and the presence of diabetes mellitus. The presence of all 3 variables served as an indicator to detect high-risk patients, with a sensitivity of 0.80 and a specificity of 0.64. CONCLUSION Mortality predictors for patients after PEG insertion are higher age, lower BMI, and the presence of diabetes mellitus. To avoid unnecessary and dangerous examinations in high-risk patients, the above-mentioned predictive factors of mortality should be checked before PEG placement.

Abstract
Nutritional support is imperative to the recovery of head-injury patients. Hypermetabolism and hypercatabolism place this patient population at increased risk for weight loss, muscle wasting, and malnutrition. Nutrition management may be further complicated by alterations in gastrointestinal motility. Resting energy expenditure should be measured using indirect calorimetry and protein status measured using urine urea nitrogen. Providing early enteral nutrition within 72 hours of injury may decrease infection rates and overall complications. Establishing standards of practice and nutrition protocols will assure patients receive optimal nutrition assessment and intervention in a timely manner.
