is a person allowed to turn a feeding machine on shabbat for a severely brain damaged child that is fed through their stomache, given that using a syringe will not be efficient enough and also will send the food too quickly into the stomache?

2. It is permitted to treat a gentile on Shabbat.
See: Abraham S. Abraham, M.D., FRCP, Nishmat Avraham Volume IV Orach-Chaim, section 330, mark 2. (in Hebrew).
