Outcomes of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in HIV patients
This study underscores the need for heightened vigilance and tailored management strategies when considering PEG tube procedures in the context of HIV, given the observed elevated bleeding risks and increased 1-year mortality rates in this patient population. Further research is warranted to elucidate the underlying factors contributing to these outcomes, facilitating the development of targeted interventions to optimize the care of HIV patients undergoing PEG placement.
