A small pump that runs liquid feed through a feeding tube at a steady rate, used at home by people who cannot eat enough after head and neck or gullet cancer treatment.
Enteral feeding pumps are FDA product code LZH (pump, infusion, enteral; 21 CFR 880.5725). An example is Cardinal Health's Kangaroo OMNI enteral feeding pump with its feeding sets (K221603, 20 December 2022). Feeding tubes and syringes now use connectors that fit only enteral devices, so a feed cannot be connected to an intravenous line by mistake; the FDA lists them as separate product codes (PIF tubes, PNR syringes, PIO enteral-specific transition connectors). The feeding tubes themselves are in the glossary and the nutrition record.
A peristaltic pump meters feed from a bag through a giving set into a gastrostomy, jejunostomy or nasogastric tube at a programmed rate and volume.
