Feeding Tube Insertion

Comprehensive care for digestive disorders by Dr. Akeel Alisa

What is Feeding Tube Insertion?

Some patients with swallowing difficulties or certain medical conditions may require a feeding tube to ensure they receive adequate nutrition.

Endoscopic placement of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube is a safe and effective way to provide long-term feeding access directly into the stomach.

Who Needs a Feeding Tube?

  • Patients with neurological conditions affecting swallowing (e.g., stroke, Parkinson’s disease).
  • Patients with head and neck cancers.
  • Patients with severe oesophageal disorders.
  • Critically ill patients unable to maintain adequate oral intake.
