A gastrostomy is a surgical procedure in which a tube is inserted through the abdominal wall and into the stomach to provide nutrition and hydration directly to the stomach. the procedure is usually done in order to bypass the mouth and esophagus, allowing for easier and more efficient delivery of nutrition and hydration. it is typically done in cases where a patient is unable to swallow or has difficulty digesting food through the mouth.
What happens during the disease - attention to gastrostomy
Attention to gastrostomy is a condition in which the stomach is surgically opened and a tube is inserted to provide nutrition and medication directly into the stomach. this condition can be caused by a variety of factors, including motor neuron diseases, swallowing disorders, and gastrointestinal problems. the tube helps to bypass any blockages or areas of difficulty that may exist in the gastrointestinal tract, allowing nutrition and medications to be delivered directly to the stomach. in some cases, the tube may be used to decompress the stomach or to allow the delivery of food and medication directly to the stomach, bypassing the mouth and esophagus.
