Summary

Ap¬plications of CO2 insufflation for endoscopic procedures have been reported for the performance of routine colonoscopy, small bowel endoscopy, endoscopic retro¬grade cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic submucosal dissection in the upper and lower gastrointestinal tracts. These studies showed that CO2 insufflation reduces the post-procedural abdominal distension and pain without CO2 retention and adverse events. However, there has been no report on the safety and efficacy of CO2 insufflation in PEG procedures in adults or in children. In the present study, we would like to evaluate by randomized controlled trial: the safety of the CO2 insufflation during PEG and the inhibi¬tory effects of CO2 insufflation on bowel distension after PEG.
