s/l **jev-uh-dee** through a PEG tube?
Subject: s/l **jev-uh-dee** through a PEG tube?
Quote:
She still has inadequate control of her airway with dysphagia, particularly for thin liquids, and thus has her trach still in place. However, this does seem to be improving. She is also using **gevadee** through a PEG tube in her abdomen.
Anyone know what the heck **gevadee** or **jevadee** could possibly bee? It would rhyme with chickadee but starts jev, just like the name jeff but with a v instead of two f's -- Jevadee.
Thanks in advance!

J tube, G tube

I apologize in advance if this is a dumb question but my brain is done for today. This is an ESL and I think she is getting confused herself because she keeps changing her mind. There are several areas in the report so I don't want to pull out a direct quote.
Can a patient have a G tube and a J tube...are these the same thing or different? As far as I know they are both for tube feedings. She also talks about a JP drain, in the same breath as these 2, draining chyle so I'm just trying to understand myself what each is so I can possibly determine what she means.
