Enteral feeding monitor/manager.

A simple and inherently safe Enteral Feeding Monitor/Manager is described for use with standard, single-lumen jejunal tubes. No feedings or GI fluids are removed permanently unless they accumulate adjacent to the catheter. Only such momentary excess is removed promptly, before local distention can develop. The full bore automatically alternates between 30 seconds on suction and 30 seconds for return of the aspirate. Each minute, the removed air bubbles are vented, the residual jejunal volume is measured, and the degassed fluid is returned by gravity.
