(Last Updated On: )Feeding Bag
Brief
The feeding tube enables people who can’t eat normally—due to injury, oral cancer, or another short-or long-term illness—to get the food and nutrition they need via a tube fed into the stomach through the abdomen.
A feeding tube works by delivering specialized liquid nutrition formula directly into your stomach or intestines.
CHARACTERITICS
A feeding tube is a medical device used to provide nutrition to patients who cannot obtain nutrition by mouth, are unable to swallow safely, or need nutritional supplementation.
- A feeding tube is a tube that is surgically inserted through the skin of the abdomen directly into the stomach.
- The medical term for this is Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy tube or PEG tube.
- People with feeding tubes are fed by putting a form of liquid nutrition into the tube.
- Feeding tubes can be beneficial and have helped many patients by providing the necessary hydration and nutrition for those who are unable to eat or drink by mouth.
- For example, a stroke patient may need a feeding tube for a short period before recovering and going back to eating and drinking by mouth.
- Or a patient with head and neck cancer can also benefit from a feeding tube by providing them with a means to receive nutrition and hydration during, pre, and post-treatment.
- It also gives the patient the ability to take medications via the feeding tube if they are having trouble swallowing.
