Balloon-based insufflation maintenance device

Abstract

[Problem] To provide an insufflation retention device that facilitates the retention of insufflated material within a body cavity. [Solution] According to various embodiments, a probe can be inserted into a body cavity to perform a diagnostic intervention, a therapeutic intervention, or both. The probe can be inserted through a naturally occurring, artificial, intentional, or accidental body opening. The body opening can form a seal surrounding the probe, thus effectively retaining the insufflation device within the body cavity and allowing the operator to perform the intervention. However, leakage of insufflated material may occur. The insufflation retention device is configured to contact and form an effective seal adjacent to a body opening and provide a passage for introducing the probe into the body cavity, thus enabling a diagnostic intervention, a therapeutic intervention, or both.

Claims

1. An internal buttress configured to prevent exit from the body cavity through a body opening, having a non-expanded state and having an expanded state after the introduction of an expanding substance, An internal buttress portion coupled to the internal buttress and having greater rigidity than the internal buttress in the expanded state, An external buttress that is connected to the internal buttress and configured not to enter the body cavity through the body opening, and which has only an expanded external buttress state and does not have an unexpanded external buttress state, A passage extending through the internal buttress and the external buttress, the passage being configured to allow a probe to pass through upon contact engagement with the body cavity, and to open in such a way that inhaled substances introduced into the body cavity are not retained within the body cavity when the probe is not present in the passage, and the expanded internal buttress having a passage extending around one end of the internal buttress portion, A joint running from the outer surface of the passage to the inner surface of the passage, and extending from the internal buttress to the external buttress, A device for maintaining insufflation, equipped with the necessary components.

2. The first end of the internal buttress and The second end of the internal buttress is configured to connect with the first end of the internal buttress in the extended state of the internal buttress, The insufflation holding device according to claim 1, further comprising:

3. A first main body component including the first main body external buttress, the first main body intermediate section, and the first main body internal buttress section, A second main body component including a second main body external buttress, a second main body intermediate section, and a second main body internal buttress section, A fastener configured to combine the first main body component and the second main body component to form the external buttress, the passage, and the internal buttress, The insufflation holding device according to claim 1, further comprising:

4. The insufflation holding device according to claim 3, further comprising a hinge between the first main body external buttress and the second main body external buttress.

5. The first internal cavity of the first balloon in the buttress portion inside the first main body, The first internal cavity and the first extended material line that are in fluid communication, The second internal cavity of the second balloon in the second internal buttress portion of the second main body, The present invention further comprises a second extended material line that is in fluid communication with the second internal cavity, The insufflation device according to claim 3, wherein the first expansion material line and the second expansion material line are configured to be connected to a source of expansion material for the expansion of the first balloon in the internal buttress portion of the first body and the second balloon in the internal buttress portion of the second body.

6. The insufflation holding device according to claim 3, further comprising a valve configured for a continuous path between the first body part and the second body part to allow the internal buttress to expand from one expansion material line and one expansion material supply source.

7. The internal balloon in the aforementioned passage, Located outside the aforementioned passage, and surrounding the passage is an external balloon, The insufflation holding device according to claim 1, further comprising:

8. The inflatable balloon holding device according to claim 7, wherein the internal balloon and the external balloon are in fluid communication, thereby allowing a single source of expanding material to be used to simultaneously expand both the internal balloon and the external balloon.

9. Internal buttresses configured to prevent them from exiting the body cavity through the body's openings, A passage extending through the internal buttress, the passage being configured to allow the probe to pass through upon contact engagement with the body cavity, and the internal buttress having an O-ring-shaped structure outside the passage structure, A device for maintaining insufflation, equipped with the necessary components.

10. The insufflation holding device according to claim 9, wherein the O-ring type structure extends diagonally and non-perpendicularly to the passage structure.

11. The insufflation holding device according to claim 9, further comprising a joint that runs from the outer surface of the passage to the inner surface of the passage, extends from the internal buttress to the passage, and is configured around the probe to accommodate the arrangement of the passage.
