Abstract
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) feeding has a significant morbidity and mortality associated with the procedure. Patient selection, procedural volume, timing of insertion and aftercare may have a direct bearing on mortality. We aimed to establish whether variation in PEG practice exists within the UK.
