Abstract
: Initiating early nutritional feeding in hospitalized patients will decline patients’ complications, shorten hospital length of stay and costs, and improve health outcomes. Over the years, with the emergence of the enteral feeding pumps, the process of enteral feeding has become easier with higher accuracy and safety. Enteral feeding pumps provide the ability to combine methods like continuous feeding during the overnight and bolus feeding during the day to make the feeding process more adaptable to patients’ status. Nowadays, prescriber’s knowledge regarding individualized nutrition for each patient according to their specific needs has been increased, and enteral feeding had shifted to home care settings. The need for precision enteral nutrition programs according to differences in human phenotype, genotype, food preferences, and health status becomes more apparent. Personalized nutrition programs can reduce the prevalence and risk of disease-related malnutrition and improve patients’ quality of life in home care settings. In this way, feeding pumps facilitate the personalized feeding process by making it unique and improved.
