研究概览
简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to compare the incidence of postoperative hypergranulation tissue formation after gastrostomy tube placement among children randomized to one of three treatments, in addition to measuring tube dislodgements and rates of resource utilization for complications.
详细描述
Hypergranulation tissue is one of the major immediate complications of gastronomy tube placement. This study aims to determine if using a foam dressing upon placement will prevent its formation, as it has been demonstrated as an effective treatment in healing hypergranulation tissue formation post-operatively. Study participants will be randomized into one of three treatments after gastronomy tube placement (1) standard care, (2) plain foam treatment or (3) silver foam dressing. These treatments will be applied for 30 days post-operatively in addition to standard care of cleaning the gastronomy site daily with soap and water, if assigned to foam intervention. All study materials are free for duration of 30 day intervention and participation will not interfere with routine post-operative care of gastronomy tube site. The total duration of trial will be 6 months and will not require additional study visits outside of routine care. The rate of G-tube dislodgements and associated outcomes will also be measured during the trial.

入选标准
- •Children between 1 month and 17 years of age who undergo gastrostomy tube placement by a member of the pediatric surgery faculty at Children's Memorial Hospital will be eligible for inclusion in this study.
排除标准
- •Children undergoing gastrostomy tube placement by gastroenterology or interventional radiology at Children's Memorial Hospital.

研究组 & 干预措施
Standard postop gastrostomy tube care
At the completion of the operative procedure for gastrostomy tube placement, the surgical incisions and the gastrostomy tube will be covered with dermabond, steristrips, and/or tegaderm dressings, according to surgeon preference. Standard postop gastrostomy tube care. Insertion site cleaned with soap and water. No dressing added.
Standard hydrocolloid dressing
At the completion of the operative procedure for gastrostomy tube placement, the surgical incisions will be covered with dermabond, steristrips, and/or tegaderm dressings, according to the surgeons preference. The gastrostomy tube will have a thin layer of hydrocolloid dressing (HD) placed around the gastrostomy tube. The HD will be changed once every other day fo the first 30 days after gastrostomy tube placement. After 30 days, care will revert to standard care.
干预措施: Standard Hydrocolloid Dressing (Procedure)
Silver hydrocolloid dressing
At the completion of the operative procedure for gastrostomy tube placement, the surgical incisions will be covered with dermabond, steristrips, and/or tegaderm dressings, according to surgeon preference. The gastrostomy tube will have a thin layer of silver hydrocolloid dressing (HD) placed around the gastrostomy tube. The silver HD will be changed once every other day for the first 30 days after gastrostomy tube placement. After 30 days, care will revert to standard care.
干预措施: Silver Hydrocolloid Dressing (Procedure)
结局指标

次要结局
- The secondary outcome is to measure change in visual assessment of postoperative condition of gastrostomy tube insertion site.(2 timepoints: 2 weeks and 6 months post insertion.)
