Understanding patients and carers' experience and perceptions will inform the development of strategies to empower future patients and carers in choice of modality for enteral feeding. Patients with percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) found it easier to integrate enteral tube feeding into daily lives. Carers played a pivotal role in choice of modality, as well as in care of patients on enteral feeding.
