Abstract
A system () for artificially feeding a patient, comprising: a pressure sensor () fluidly connectable to an inflatable balloon (B) via a first lumen of a balloon catheter (); a controller () operatively connected to the pressure sensor () for obtaining the measured pressure values; a food pump () fluidly connectable to a second lumen of the balloon catheter having at least one opening () for providing food; the controller () operatively connected to the food pump () for driving the food pump at a configurable flow rate; wherein the controller () contains computer executable instructions comprising: first code fragments for performing a first algorithm () for extracting gastric motility information from the measured pressure values, and second code fragments for performing a second algorithm for dynamically adjusting () said flow rate based on said extracted gastric motility information.
