Abstract

Although gastrostomy feeding tends to have fewer interruptions than naso-gastric feeding and is cosmetically more acceptable; there is little information on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in these patients. This study aimed to measure the health-related quality of life of patients after gastrostomy placement.
