Brief summary

A 12 months mono-center, descriptive study, to evaluate pain and predictive factors Following placement of percutaneous Radiologic gastrostomy (PRG). The primary objective is to evaluate the abdominal pain associated with percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement.

Detailed description

PRG is a pathway first of all enteral nutrition that has several advantages: local anesthesia, possible in case of esophageal stenosis, Rates of successful tube placement higher for radiologic gastrostomy than for percutaneous endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG). Abdominal pain following percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement is a recognized complication. However, the prevalence and degree of severity of pain are poorly characterized. This pain often requires antalgic treatment. The primary objective is to evaluate the abdominal pain from Baseline until 7 days after radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement. The secondary objective is to evaluate predictive factors
