KTO (Not Available in EZMODE)
The Keep Tube Open (KTO) function within the KANGAROO ePump enteral feeding pump will help prevent a blockage of the
feeding set by moving the feeding solution periodically within the tube. On regular intervals, calculated from the pump’s presently
programmed feed rate, a small and clinically insignificant portion of feeding solution is moved through the tube. The amount of
delivered fluid is monitored, tracked, and calculated into the final feed volume totalizer amounts displayed to the user. The KTO
feature can be activated via the RUNNING screen. To activate the KTO feature, press the input button to the left of the KTO icon, see
Figure 15A, to immediately input a desired time in minutes for which the pump will remain in the “Keep Tube Open” mode before
resuming the previously programmed feeding regimen. Each press of the input button will increment the KTO time by 5-minute
increments, up to 30 minutes, see Figure 15B. After “30” is reached, each additional button press will increment in larger time steps,
up to a maximum of 240 minutes. Another button push after 240 will cycle the KTO back to 5 minutes. No other input is needed to
start the countdown, as the time immediately counts down after the incremental value is reached.
Lock Screen Feature (Not Available in EZMODE)
The KANGAROO ePump enteral feeding pump can be set to RUN and then locked out from unauthorized use. While the LOCK
SETTINGS feature prevents only changes to the input parameters, the LOCK SCREEN feature will lock out any button presses,
including RUN or HOLD, except power off.
Use LOCK SCREEN when the pump is running and there is a need to prevent tampering such as putting the pump into an unwanted
HOLD. The RUNNING screen will show a padlock to indicate that no changes can be made without unlocking the screen.
To lock the screen, use the following procedure while the pump is in RUNNING mode:
• Press and hold the third4button from the top for at least 3 seconds, and then release it.
To unlock the screen, use the same procedure above.
