  • Enteral Feed Cup
    Publication number: 20150182422
    Abstract: A large enteral feed cup large enough to contain an amount of fluid suitable for a single dose (nutrition and/or medicines) is described. The enteral feed cup can be free-standing on the proximal end so as to facilitate filling via an opening on the distal end. The distal end includes a resealable closure for an opening that can be quite large and thus can be easily filled with less chance of spillage. The free-standing design of the enteral feed cup can also allow for the cup to be used in any convenient location.
