An enteral feeding pump is a medical device that uses electrical power to generate controlled pressure, enabling the precise delivery of liquid nutrition through a tube into the gastrointestinal tract. It is used for patients who cannot meet their nutritional needs orally due to illness, surgery, or swallowing difficulties, ensuring consistent and accurate nutrient administration.

These devices are typically regulated as active medical devices requiring electrical safety and performance standards, and are supplied as reusable or single-use systems depending on design. They are intended for use under clinical supervision and must comply with applicable regulations governing electromedical equipment and infusion accuracy.
