Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Enteral feeding by percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy is indicated as long-term nutritional support for children with neurologic impairment and dysphagia. We report our experience with percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy and evaluate the age range of children with cerebral palsy who benefit most with weight and height gain. METHODS:In a prospective study, from August 1996 to August 1997, 20 endoscopic gastrostomies were performed in 20 children diagnosed with cerebral palsy (16), myopathy (2), and brain trauma (2). The mean age was 6.5 years and the mean follow-up 5.9 months. All patients had severe mental impairment and oropharyngeal dysphagia. They were followed up monthly on an outpatient basis by both the gastroenterologist and the dietitian, who assessed gastrostomy complications and performed anthropometric measurements. RESULTS:All 20 patients benefited from enteral nutrition with a statistically significant gain in weight (p < 0.01), and there was a trend toward improved weight/height ratio in children under 4 years of age according to Z-score and mid-arm muscle area (p < 0.01). Triceps skinfold thickness failed to reach statistical significance. There were no immediate complications related to the procedure. Perforations occurred with three (15%) tubes, and the plugs for introduction of food had to be replaced after 4 months of use. All complications, namely formation of granulation tissue at the stoma (7), stoma infection (4), gastroesophageal reflux pneumonia (3), and pneumoperitoneum (1) were managed clinically. CONCLUSIONS:Endoscopic gastrostomy is a safe procedure for children. Enteral feeding resulted in a trend toward a normalized weight/height ratio for children with cerebral palsy younger than 4 years and significant weight gain in those older than 12 years.
