Complications and clinical factors associated with pediatric percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy in a Colombian cohort

This study underscores the importance of systematic nutritional assessment and optimized post-operative care to reduce complications following PEG in pediatric patients. The high incidence of Buried Bumper Syndrome calls for more stringent follow-up protocols, especially in resource-limited settings. Close monitoring during the early post-operative period can prevent complications.

Abstract

This study underscores the importance of systematic nutritional assessment and optimized post-operative care to reduce complications following PEG in pediatric patients. The high incidence of Buried Bumper Syndrome calls for more stringent follow-up protocols, especially in resource-limited settings. Close monitoring during the early post-operative period can prevent complications.
