Abstract

Early enteral nutrition significantly improves the prognosis of patients in many clinical situations. In addition to theoretical knowledge, the PEG and probe course primarily teaches the practical implementation of all common procedures. Under the guidance of experienced experts the model of transnasal and percutaneous probe systems can be practiced. These include the installation of jejunal probes, the classic PEG with and without jejunal Schankel, as well as the implementation of gastropexy.
