Ambulatory Enteral Feeding Pumps

Challenge

Enteral Pump

For patients that require enteral feeding for their entire nutrition or hydration intake, feeding can require a substantial portion of the day. Ambulatory enteral feeding pumps allow these patients to continue their daily activities at the same time as they are receiving the nutrients they require. Portescap's high power density coreless DC brushed Athlonix motors allow pump designers to improve patient freedom and discretion. The high power density ironless rotor reduces the size and weight of the motor itself, and its high efficiency allows for smaller batteries to further reduce the weight of the pump. Low noise spur gearboxes reduce the sound produced by the pump for both patient comfort and discretion in public settings.
