The is for people who require nutrition through continuous feeding, intermittent feeding, or feeding and flushing. The Kangaroo ePump delivers it all in one compact, simple-to-use, precision enteral feeding pump. The Kendall Kangaroo ePump is easily programmed providing patients with either continuous or intermittent feeding. However, it can also provide automatic flushing when used with Kangaroo ePump Feed & Flush Sets (Item # KND773662). The Kendall Kangaroo ePump Enteral Feeding Pump functions on a simple to use ATM Style interface that makes it remarkably easy to use. It offers the opportunity to program hydration for both mobile and hospitalized patients alike. The Kendall Kangaroo ePump Feeding Pump has a Five Button Interface that walks the user through the programming process, and an alarm identification system that quickly resolves any problems that may arise. The Kendall Kangaroo ePump uses the MISTIC (Magnetic Intelligent Set Type Identification Connector) Identification System to recognize the pump set type and offers appropriate programming options. Kendall Kangaroo ePump Feeding and Flushing Sets Offer programmed flushing intervals, eliminating the need to manually flush tubes and sets. This allows for hydration and nutrition-programmed delivery. Since there is no drip chamber, the pump can be used anywhere on anyone. And Prior programming settings can be saved for up to 72 hours. Anti Free-Flow is an integral component of every Kangaroo ePump Delivery Set. This feature prevents the bag from allowing the free flow of solution into the patient (similar to a gravity feed set) if the set becomes disconnected from the pump. This is safer for the patient because it prevents a possible overfeed situation that could lead to patient aspiration or other complications. In addition, it provides for easier set-up and minimizes the potential for solution spill due to an open roller-clamp. The Kangaroo ePump monitors the presence or absence of fluid to determine the flow condition of the feeding set. By monitoring for the absence of fluid, the pump can determine if the pump is experiencing either an upstream occlusion or an empty bag. - Attitude-independent design eliminates need for drip chamber on pump set
