Hi,

When we were trained to use the PEG, we were told to suck out the stomach contents and make a note of how much was retained...if there is too much, then we needed to wait to do any more tube feeding.
Just a thought because maybe if the stomach is too full it could cause vomitting if you are "overfilling">???? Note...they also told us to re-inject the stomach contents..yes..gross...but we were told by the oncology nurse that there are electolytes in the contents, so they need to be put back in..
Are other people doing this????
