Dressing Sets for Stoma care
For many years a PEG feeding tube has been a standard for percutaneous enteral nutrition. It is a reliable and convenient form to deliver food to the patient. Approximately 2-4 weeks after placement of a PEG a stoma is formed around the entry point of the feeding tube. With a good daily routine, the stoma can be kept healthy and free from irritations.

Until the stoma is fully formed and mature you may protect the site with a sterile dressing.
