  • Patent number: 12296124
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an enema nozzle (1;18) for an enema system, and wherein said enema nozzle (1;18) comprises a catheter (2) provided with a flexible retention member (3;19) arranged for retaining the enema nozzle in a body cavity in a retention stage, and wherein said retention member is only partially filled with a liquid (15;21) in the retention stage. The combination of a flexible retention member (3;19) that is only partially filled with a liquid (15;21), ensures that the liquid contained in the retention member easily can be displaced/moved around inside the retention member (3;19) during use. In this way the retention member (3;19) remains pliable and flexible enough to be able to conform and adapt to the shape of the colon during use.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 12036377
    Abstract: A hand-operated flow regulator is adapted to be inserted between an elastomeric bulb pump and a tubing as a part of an enema flow path. The hand-operated flow regulator comprises a main flow body, and a tubular pump coupling end part having a free pump coupling end and defining a first flow section. The tubular pump coupling end part extends via an exterior regulator body part into a tubular tube coupling end part having a free tube coupling end and defining a second flow section. An interior regulator body part is situated rotatable and substantially coaxially inside the exterior regulator body part, and a pivotable grip is in operative communication with the interior regulator body part to open and close the enema flow path.
