Abstract
A pressure monitoring enteral feeding system and method are disclosed including a housing having a pair of channels for receiving a pump tubing segment which connects an intake line and an output line of a delivery set, and for holding the pump tubing segment adjacent a motor unit. A pair of pressure sensors are disposed along the channels to monitor the pressure in the pump tubing segment so as to warn a user when an undesirable pressure has developed either upstream or downstream from the motor unit, and to adjust rate based on the upstream pressure. The housing may also include a lockable cover to securely hold the pump tubing segment in the channels and in firm contact with the pressure sensors.
