Connected by a tube to a nutrient bag and equipped with a digital interface, the pump can be used to manage enteral feeding in hospital and at home
With the pump, the medical team can accurately administer and control the rate and amount of food delivered, while monitoring the patient's enteral feeding with information on the amount already delivered and the time remaining until the end of the feeding.
Easymoov6 addresses a major problem facing medical staff: keeping patients' weight stable. Some chronic diseases, gastrointestinal surgery and localised cancers (of the tongue, mouth or oesophagus) can lead to weight loss, with the patient unable to eat, having no appetite, etc. Patients may sometimes suffer from malnutrition. This can affect the effectiveness or prevent the continuation of certain therapies. In general, cancer patients have an increased need for nutrients to fight the disease.
