Interventions

  • Constant Pressure Skin Disk — DEVICE
    The external disk is made of Dow Corning® Silastic Q7-4850 liquid silicone rubber. Placement of the disk will be done by the gastroenterologist or interventional radiologist during the gastrointestinal gastrostomy tube (GIG) or gastrointestinal jejunostomy tube (GIJ) placement procedure. The gastroenterologist or interventional radiologist will replace the manufacturer's external, adjustable skin disk with the external, adjustable Constant Pressure Skin Disk, by sliding the former off and the latter on to the feeding tube.

Study Details

Researchers are gathering information on one specific part of a feeding tube, known as the adjustable skin disk. Researchers are trying to see if a new type of adjustable skin disk, called a Constant Pressure Skin Disk (CPSD), can safely and effectively support adequate healing, and reduced complication rates.
