David, what exactly does that mean though?
Do these 30% that are dependent on a PEG tube include those that otherwise would not get any nutrition? Also this would depend on the type of patients (i.e. age severity etc)
Reading the comments here, even those who are "proponents" of a PEG do not like the *&%$ thing and are happy to get rid of it once they are past the rough spot of the treatment, if not sooner.
