Problems solved by technology

[0017] Finally, in the implementation variant in which the positioning of the gastrointestinal implant is pushed out of the housing / sleeve by using a punch-like device, there is the problem that the punch presses the two fixation means together so that they wedged, with the result that they can no longer perform their function

Embodiment Construction

[0106] gastrointestinal implants

[0107] figure 1 Shown is a gastrointestinal implant 17 according to the invention, comprising a tubular element 1 and two fixation means 3 and 4, which are connected to each other by a connecting element 6 and serve to attach the tubular element 1 localizes in the gut. It is an object of the present invention to transport chyme that enters the intestinal tract through the stomach through at least one segment of the human intestinal tract without digestion of the chyme. Preferably, the tubular element 1 is at least partly made of silicone or fluorosilicone or other biocompatible material that is able to remain in the stomach or intestinal tract for a prolonged period without decomposing and has sufficient Flexible to be delivered into the gastrointestinal tract via the mouth and esophagus, preferably in a folded / adducted state.

[0108] The length of the tubular element 1 can vary depending on the purpose of application. The longer the tub...

Abstract

The invention relates to a gastrointestinal implant (17) comprising a tubular element (1), designed to feed chyme through at least one section of the human intestine; a first fastening means (3) connected to the tubular element (1), having a first support surface (33), and designed to be positioned in a section of the duodenum (2) adjacent to the pylorus (7); a second fastening means (4) connected to the tubular element (1) or to the first fastening means (3), having a second support surface (34), and designed to be positioned in the antrum (5) of the stomach; a connection element (6), which connects the first fastening means (3) or the tubular element (1) to the second fastening means (4), the connection element (6) being designed such that when the first fastening means (3) is in the position in the duodenum (2) and the second fastening means (4) is in the position in the antrum (5) of the stomach, the first and second fastening means are pressed against each other with the pylorus (7) therebetween by the first support surface (33) of the first fastening means and the second support surface (34) of the second fastening means, without the fastening means (3,4) being lifted from the pylorus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of obesity and the sequelae associated with obesity, such as diabetes, arterial hypertension and the consequent increased risk of stroke, myocardial infarction and cancer, as well as sequelae of the spine and locomotor system. [0002] Many patients are often unable to fight their obesity through their own strength, for example by eating less or being healthier. In addition, patients are often unable to perform the exercise required to overcome obesity, since obesity has usually progressed to such an extent that the above-mentioned sequelae of the spinal and locomotor system cause pain and prevent adequate exercise. [0003] Therefore, these patients need additional assistance to enable them to rapidly reduce their obesity to such an extent that they can again exercise at least pain-free. The resulting greater comfort also more often motivates the patient to take further efforts to lose weight further, so that ...
