Abstract

An internal colostomy catheter includes a pouch or bag that is secured to a body vessel such as the colon or intestine and remains within the abdomen to store fecal matter or urine. The internal colostomy catheter obviates the need for creation of a stoma and a colostomy bag secured to the stoma on an outer wall of the abdomen. The presently disclosed internal colostomy catheter includes exemplaryembodiments of a sensor that monitor the fill rate and or level of fluid within the internal colostomy catheter and notify a patient when the internal colostomy catheter requires evacuation.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit and priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 557,930, filed September 13, 2017, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure is directed to internal colostomy catheters, and more particularly to internal colostomy catheters having a fluid content sensor for identifying when the internal colostomy catheter needs to be emptied. Background technique [0004] During an ostomy procedure, a portion of an internal body lumen, such as the bowel or colon, is placed outside to form a stoma. An ostomy may be incorporated in which a stoma is created by fastening a bisected portion of the internal body lumen to the abdominal wall, thereby providing internal access into the internal body lumen for collection of waste. [0005] Ostomy surgery is sometimes performed urgently due to diverticulitis, trauma, radiation complica...
