Abstract

Radiologic percutaneous gastrostomy tube placement is a widely accepted method of enteral access for patients requiring long-term nutritional support for a variety of conditions. Although the safety of this procedure is well documented, complications do occur. The purpose of this article is to review the major and minor complications associated with gastrostomy tube placement and to present appropriate and effective management strategies.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 July 2022.
All research outputs
#18,437,241
of 22,842,950 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Roentgenology
#6,397
of 7,139 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#152,100
of 200,489 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Roentgenology
#43
of 54 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,842,950 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 7,139 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.1. This one is in the 5th percentile – i.e., 5% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 200,489 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 54 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
