How the Joey Feeding Pump Works
The Kangaroo Joey Enteral Feeding Pump operates by precisely delivering set volumes of nutritional formula through enteral feeding tubes. Users can program the pump for continuous feeding, which delivers nutrition at a constant rate, or intermittent feeding, which delivers nutrition at scheduled intervals. The intuitive interface allows for easy setup of feeding modes, volumes, and rates. When equipped with compatible feed and flush sets, the pump can automatically flush the feeding tube at programmed intervals, ensuring the tube remains clear and reducing the risk of blockages.
