研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to test a new device called the PUMA-G Pediatric System. The research will measure if the device works well to safely aid doctors placing gastrostomy feeding tubes in children. The PUMA-G Pediatric System is an investigational device that uses ultrasound and magnets to guide insertion of a feeding tube.
详细描述
This is a multi-center, non-randomized, non-blinded feasibility study to evaluate the performance and safety of the Percutaneous Ultrasound Gastrostomy (PUG) technique in the pediatric population.
A common method for placing gastrostomy tubes currently uses ionizing radiation to aid doctors in procedural steps. Excess radiation usage may present long-term risks to pediatric patients. The PUG procedure, using the PUMA-G Pediatric System, primarily uses ultrasound to guide gastrostomy feeding tube placement.
Up to 40 patients will be enrolled in the study and receive the PUG procedure using the PUMA-G Pediatric System. Following the procedure, patients will be followed during their hospital admission until discharge or up to 30 days. Data will be collected to assess how safe the procedure was and if the procedure used less radiation. Study subjects will be compared to a matched, retrospective cohort of patients who received standard of care gastrostomy tube placement by Interventional Radiology.

研究组 & 干预措施
Percutaneous Ultrasound Gastrostomy (PUG)
Enrolled subjects will receive the PUG procedure using the PUMA-G Pediatric System performed by an Interventional Radiologist
干预措施: Percutaneous Ultrasound Gastrostomy (Device)
Percutaneous Radiologic Gastrostomy
A matched, retrospective control cohort of patients previously admitted to hospital for the placement of gastrostomy tubes by Interventional Radiology will be used to compare performance of the PUMA-G Pediatric System to standard of care.
