Background and Identification
Enteral feeding is the method by which patients receive nutrients when they are unable to do so by mouth. A patient can be enterally fed through a tube placed into the gastrointestinal tract. A tube may also be inserted into a patient’s stomach through the nose. A feeding pump can be programmed to administer nutrients to the patient at specific times in specific amounts.
