Understanding Internal Access Techniques
Internal access refers to various techniques for placing tubes into the digestive system, crucial for patients needing nutritional support. Different types of tubes, such as nasogastric, gastric, jejunal, cecostomy, and percutaneous transesophageal gastrostomy (P-TEG) tubes, have specific applications and methods of placement. For instance, gastrojejunostomy (GJ) tubes are used for feeding directly into the jejunum, and the cecostomy is often utilized for specific colorectal issues. This segment emphasizes the common usage of these tubes by interventional radiologists and the importance of understanding each type's unique placement techniques.
