Abstract: A flow control system and method of detecting a condition of a pump set mounted on the apparatus. The system configured to perform the method of advancing a first amount of the feeding formula through the feeding pump via a feeding formula conduit. Further, the system may acquire a first pressure sensor reading of the feeding formula conduit. Further, the system may advance a second amount of the feeding formula through the feeding pump via the feeding formula conduit, wherein the second amount is second volume of the liquid. Further, the system may acquire a second pressure sensor reading of the feeding formula conduit, and acquire a third pressure sensor reading of the feeding formula conduit. Further, the system may detect an occlusion in the feeding formula conduit based on at least one of the first pressure sensor reading, the second pressure sensor reading and the third pressure sensor reading.

Abstract: A compression garment controller and a method for monitoring compliance of a user wearing a compression garment wrapped around a limb of the user in accordance with a compression therapy. The method comprising directing a flow of fluid from a pressurized fluid flow source to cyclically inflate and deflate an inflatable bladder of the compression garment; receiving pressure signals indicative of fluid pressure in the inflatable bladder from a pressure sensor communicatively coupled thereto during at least one of inflation and deflation of the inflatable bladder in a plurality of successive compression cycles; processing the received pressure signals to determine compliance or non-compliance with the compression therapy; causing at least one a light emitting diode (LED) to illuminate in a first color indicating compliance with the compression therapy; and causing the at least one LED to illuminate in a second color indicating non-compliance with the compression therapy.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for delivering fluid from a syringe to a subject using a pumping device of a flow control apparatus. The method includes locating the flow control apparatus on a horizontal support surface. Providing the syringe with a volume of fluid including a total amount of preferred nutrient and an amount of non-preferred nutrient liquid. Mounting the syringe relative to the flow control apparatus whereby the syringe is oriented in a generally vertical orientation such that an outlet of the syringe faces upward. Initiating operation of the pumping device to draw the fluid from the syringe for a duration of time to preferentially deliver at least a portion of the total amount of preferred nutrient in the fluid to the subject.
