First Claim
1. A system for controlled food intake, comprising:
- a controlled food intake apparatus, havingan inlet tube configured to connect to a lower esophageal stoma,a flow controller,at least one container configured to detachably attach to the inlet tube and to administer nutrition liquids to a patient at a flow rate based on a position of the flow controller,an outlet tube configured to connect to an upper esophageal stoma,at least one waste container configured to detachably attach to the outlet tube, andprocessing circuitry configured to control the flow controller to control the flow rate of the nutrition liquids being administered to the patient based on prescribed nutrition intake order; and

Abstract
A controlled food intake system includes an apparatus having an inlet tube configured to connect to a lower esophageal stoma, a flow controller, and at least one container configured to detachably attach to the inlet tube and to administer nutrition liquids to a patient at a flow rate based on a position of the flow controller. The apparatus also includes an outlet tube configured to connect to an upper esophageal stoma and a waste container that detachably attaches to the outlet tube. Processing circuitry of the apparatus is configured to control the flow controller to control the flow rate of the nutrition liquids being administered to the patient based on prescribed nutrition intake order. The controlled food intake system also includes at least one server configured to generate reports based on the nutrition liquids administered to the patient and substance consumed by the patient.
