Predictive Factors for Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy in Patients with Spontaneous Intracranial Hemorrhage

Abstract: GCS, occlusive hydrocephalus, mechanical ventilation, and systemic sepsis as independent risk factors for PEG tube placement. Conclusion: Disease severity and neurocritical care complications represent the major influencing parameters for PEG tube placement in spontaneous ICH patients.

“…172 In another German study of 208 ICH patients, 25% of patients required percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. 173 In this study, GCS, occlusive hydrocephalus, mechanical ventilation, and sepsis were independent risk factors for dysphagia and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy placement. In a prospective multicenter study, use of a formal screening protocol for dysphagia (eg, water swallow test) for all patients admitted with ischemic stroke was associated with a significantly reduced risk of pneumonia compared with no formal screen (OR, 0.10; 95% CI, 0.30-0.45).…”

“…In the present study, over 40% of patients still did not receive PEG placement but received nasogastric tube feeding 3 months after stroke onset, whereas severely dysphagic patients undergo PEG placement in a few weeks after onset in many Western countries [4,10,11,14,29,30]. Although the true reason for this is unclear, several factors may be involved.…”

“…The older the patients, the more likely they were to be excluded because of a severely reduced state of consciousness [2]. In a recent study by Kiphuth et al [32], neurocritical care patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage were investigated searching for predictors of later percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement. Their results partly go along with ours because besides lobar hemorrhages with increasing volume, there was no other hematoma site, and especially not hematoma volume, which was associated with PEG tube placement.…”
