A gastrostomy tube (also called a G-tube) is a tube inserted through the abdomen (into the stomach and small intestine) that delivers nutrition directly to the stomach.

This tube is used to vent your child’s stomach for air or drainage, and/or to give your child an alternate way for feeding. You will use the J-tube to feed your child.
It’s one of the ways doctors can make sure kids with trouble eating get the fluid and calories they need to grow.
Enteral nutrition can be obtained through either a gastrostomy tube (G-tube) or a jejunostomy tube (J- tube).
G-tube feeding can be done at regular mealtimes, called “bolus feeding”, or given slowly over a period of several hours using the “gravity or drip method” or “pump controlled method.”
