Zusammenfassung:GASTRIC SYSTEMS, APPARATUS, AND METHODS FOR USE WITH ENTERAL FEEDING Systems, methods, and apparatus for gastric pressure relief, flow regulation, location, gastric residual volume, a placement reminder, bidirectional fluid flow markings, reintroducing gastric material, collection reservoir raising, collection reservoir hanging, a drain port, setting tube length, and vent membranes. A gastric pressure relief system (110) is used in connection with an enteral feeding system (100), which includes a feeding container (146), administration tubing (142) and a delivery tube (144), where the gastric pressure relief system (110) is interposed between the administration tubing (142) and the delivery tube (144). The gastric pressure relief system (110) includes a collection reservoir (112) with a gas vent (114) to ambient atmosphere, relief tubing (145) secured to both the collection reservoir (112) and a multi-way connector. The multi-way connector joins the administration tubing (142) to the relief tubing (145) and a delivery tube (144) at a point below a patient's stomach, which is designated on a placement reminder apparatus.
