The theoretical part is concluded by a chapter about nursing clients with PEG probe. The practical part contains two aims. The first aim was to map out specifications of nursing clients with percutaneous endoscopic gastronomic probe. The second aim was to find out what problems there are in nursing clients with PEG probe from the nursing staff perspective. Two reseach questions were posed: Question number 1 was focused on the specifications of nursing clients with PEG probe. Question number 2 aims at problems in nursing perceived by nursing staff in clients with PEG probe. The empirical part of the bachelor thesis was processed via a qualitative research survey, using semi-structured interviews and involved observation. Interviews were carried out with eight probants in the aftercare department. Results have proven that interviewed probants manage PEG client nursing using a PEG probe. They manage to nurse the injection spot, serve nutrition and medication through the PEG probe. Problems have been spotted in sucking stomach content away, and client positioning before nutrition serving. Further, the research has proven that probants stated PEG probe blocking as one of the most frequent complications, together with an inflammation of the injection spot, everything was consulted with a doctor. The results of this bachelor thesis could be used for purposes of educational seminars in aftercare department, thus increasing nurses´ awareness as well as imporvement in PEG probe client nursing
