MIC gastrostomy feeding tube, essential for patients with gastrostomy. Gastrostomy constitutes a form of enteral feeding and provides nutritional support through the gastrointestinal tract, mainly in cases of unsafe swallowing and inability for oral feeding. It is preferred for indefinite feeding of patients who cannot be fed orally, for long periods of time (more than six weeks).
Dysphagia is the difficulty in feeding and swallowing, which can occur in children and adults, resulting in a disorder in the intake of food by mouth. The placement of the tube depends on the patient's case and is preferred when swallowing is not safe, with risk of aspiration or choking.
