Problems solved by technology

If, for example, the enema is tap water, a user sitting on the toilet can use the sink as an enema container, however, the toilet and sink are often far apart, making this method difficult
Thus, the user must have an enema container nearby in order to provide easy refilling, which makes refilling difficult and cumbersome

Embodiment Construction

[0071] The invention is based on the assumption that the device according to the invention is generally bulb-shaped in order to provide a convenient grip for the user. This assumption should not be construed as limiting, and other shapes, e.g., elongated, circular, oval, etc. Size for hand application.

[0072] figure 1 is a schematic view of a first embodiment of an enema device 1 according to the invention. The device essentially consists of an enema delivery container 2 having a generally bulb-shaped shape, an applicator nozzle 3 and a closure member 4 . The applicator nozzle 3 has an outflow opening 5 through which the enema can be discharged when pressure is applied to the delivery container 2 .

[0073] exist figure 2 A cross-sectional view of said first embodiment 1 is shown in , wherein the delivery container 2 comprises two cavities - an outer cavity 6 defined by a squeezable outer body 7, and an inner cavity defined by an inner flexible bladder 9. Cavity 8. Th...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an enema device (1; 1') comprising a delivery container (2) and an applicator nozzle (3), and wherein said delivery container (2) comprises two cavities (6,8; 6',8'),an outer cavity (6; 6') defined by an squeezable external body (7; 7'), and an inner cavity (8; 8') defined by an inner flexible bladder (9; 9'), and wherein one of said cavities (6; 8') is communicating with an outlet (10) for dispersing the enema though the applicator nozzle (3) and the other cavity (8; 6') is communicating with the surroundings via an air inlet (12). Thereby is provided a simple, inexpensive and essentially maintenance free enema device (1; 1') which can be used for self-administrating of an enema. The device (1; 1') will not only effectively prevent air from being mixed with the enema, but also ensure that the user easily can expel the enema, as the device (1; 1') will be perceived as full of enema at all times.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an enema device comprising a flexible delivery container and an applicator nozzle. Background technique [0002] An enema is a common medical procedure whereby fluid is injected into a patient's rectum and lower large intestine to induce bowel movements. This procedure is often required in patients with certain physical disorders in which voluntary bowel control is impaired, or where bowel cleansing is required prior to, for example, colonoscopy procedures or surgical procedures. [0003] Medical devices currently exist in the art for administering enemas to patients in need of the procedure. At least one type of device consists of an enema squeeze bottle filled with a fluid designed to induce bowel movements and capped by a short applicator nozzle for insertion into the patient's rectum. The applicator nozzles of conventional enemas of this type often cause discomfort and irritation when inserted. [0004] Additiona...
