This study tests a training program designed for people caring for a patient who will receive a feeding tube (PEG). The program aims to help caregivers feel more prepared and confident. You may be able to join if you are an adult caring for an adult patient scheduled for PEG placement and can use a smartphone.
This study tests whether giving you (the caregiver) training on how to use the feeding tube (PEG) can reduce the stress of caregiving and improve your quality of life. If you are the main caregiver for a stroke survivor who needs tube feeding, you may be able to join.
This study looks at whether giving more information and letting families take part in decision-making helps them feel less stress when choosing between a tracheostomy (a breathing tube in the neck) or a PEG (a feeding tube) for their loved one in the ICU.
This study tests whether giving special information to family caregivers of stroke patients who have a feeding tube (called a PEG tube) helps them care better at home. If you are the main caregiver who speaks Turkish and is with the patient in the hospital, you may be able to join.
This study tests a smartphone app to help patients and their carers manage a new PEG tube at home. It may help you feel more confident and supported after the procedure.
This study compares two ways of teaching nurses how to care for nasogastric tubes (feeding tubes that go through the nose into the stomach). Nurses will learn using either simulation (hands-on practice with models) or videos, and researchers will measure how confident and satisfied nurses feel, plus how well they perform the care.
