Gastrostomy care

News

A full and balanced diet is an important factor in the speedy recovery of any disease.

But some diseases lead to the fact that the patient can no longer eat in the usual way. In these cases, a special opening is surgically created in the anterior abdominal wall and stomach – a gastrostomy.

It allows you to inject food and medicines directly into the gastrointestinal tract, bypassing the mouth and esophagus.

Proper care of the stoma allows you to maintain good health and improve the quality of life.

Specialists of the Endoscopy Department of the Loginov Moscow State Medical Center have developed recommendations for patients, which include:

  • basic rules and algorithms of care;
  • the process of feeding and taking medications;
  • solving the most common problems.
