Abstract: An easy to use, squeezable device with a soft, flexible tube for feeding liquid nutrition to a person, includes: a) a squeezable bottle portion for holding the ingestible liquid therewithin, the bottle portion comprising an opening at its top surrounded by a neck; and b) a cap assembly comprising: flexible fluid-flow tubing, a spout or nipple assembly, and a threaded collar, an upper portion of the spout assembly being insertable through a central aperture in the collar, the flexible tubing having a first end in fluid communication with the bottle portion and a second end insertable in the patient's mouth, the flexible tubing extending through or encircling a central aperture in the spout assembly. The spout assembly preferably includes a leakproof flange, and a valve assembly for controlling flow. The device is particularly intended for use where suction such as nipples, straws, or sip cups are contraindicated after craniofacial surgery.

Abstract: A fillable, resealable, and disposable flexible liquid container which incorporates a drinking straw as a conduit for delivering fluids to a user. The container includes a pleated bottomed structure which allows it to stand upright when filled. At least one zipper closure is fitted along the upper edge of the container that permits filling of the container and prevents leaking of fluid contents in particular. The straw or tube may be built into the container and have a closure of its own, or a puncture target facilitating insertion of a straw into the container may be attached thereto.
