Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to a method and apparatus for providing a colonic lavage and particularly to a colon hydrotherapy and evacuator system suitable for use by a patient who is either having difficulty with bowel movements or has no ability at all for bowel evacuation.
  • Colonic irrigation devices have been developed but have not proven to be entirely successful. Some of the prior art devices are expensive, bulky, difficult to operate and require that the patient be brought to the apparatus for treatment.
  • the patient insertion nozzles or specula of the prior art devices are uncomfortable, often unsanitary and do not produce the motions of the lavage liquid within the colon necessary to loosen, break up and purge the fecal matter in the most efficient, manner. While the patient can manually operate a few of the prior art devices with difficulty, most require operation by an attendant and in cases of incapacitated patients, the constant attention of an attendant is always required. In addition, since the attendant can not always judge when the proper amount of lavage liquid has been introduced into the patient, the patients colon is often not sufficiently cleaned.
  • the present invention is a colon ydrotherapy and evacuator system which includes a disposable patient insertion nozzle or speculum comprising an elongated one piece tubular body having a generally converging end for insertion into a patients colon and an open discharge end which remains outside of the • patient.
  • a large, single longitudinal liquid passageway extends directly from the open discharge end to the converging end of the speculum and a pair of opposing nozzle openings are formed in the side of the speculum adjacent its converging end.
  • a tubular liquid supply port defines an inlet opening that communicates with the liquid passageway adjacent the open discharge end of the speculum.
  • the liquid supply port extends transversely from the body of the speculum adjacent the discharge end and is radially aligned with the. opposed nozzle openings.
  • a disposable, transparent discharge conduit extends from the discharge opening, through a pinch valve, and to a collection chamber. The pinch valve is adapted to collapse and release a portion of the discharge conduit closing and opening communication therethrough.
  • the system also includes both manual and automatic control means and is mounted on a wheeled frame for portability.
  • the speculum is. inserted into the colon of a patient . with the nozzle openings aligned with the , widest portion of the colon.
  • the pinch valve is actuated closing communication through the discharge conduit and lavage liquid is pumped from a liquid holding chamber through a disposable supply conduit to the inlet opening of the speculum. Oxygenated air and lavage liquid are thus forced into the colon breaking up fecal matter therein. After a predetermined length of time, pumping is discontinued and the discharge conduit opened allowing lavage liquid and fecal matter to flow from the colon to the collection chamber.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a colon hydrotherapy and evacuation system that exposes the colon to fresh oxygenated air and that forces lavage liquid laterally into the colon toward the hips of a patient where the colon is widest.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a colon hydrotherapy and evacuation system having a speculum with a single passageway and that has the capability of producing surges of lavage liquid at the nozzle openings of the speculum causing fecal matter to be broken up so that it can be .purged from- the colon.
  • a further object of .the invention is to pro.vide a colon hydrotherapy and evacuation system in which the parts that come into contact with the fecal matter of the patient are discarded after use eliminating the possibility of contamination remaining with the system.

Abstract

Procédé et appareil permettant de laver le côlon d'un patient, et comprenant un spéculum (23) que l'on introduit dans le côlon du patient. Le spéculum (23) a une forme générale tubulaire et possède une extrémité conique (28) destinée à être introduite dans le côlon et possède des ouvertures opposées (27) formées dans cette extrémité et des ouvertures de décharge et d'admission (29, 26) à l'extérieur du canal anal. L'ouverture d'admission (26) est connectée à une chambre (21) contenant le liquide de lavage par l'intermédiaire d'un conduit d'admission (31) et l'ouverture de décharge (29) est connectée par l'intermédiaire d'un conduit de décharge (32) à une chambre de récupération (22). Le conduit de décharge (32) possède une partie repliable déformable (52) qui passe à travers une pince d'arrêt (36) pouvant être actionnée pour fermer le conduit de décharge. En fonctionnement, le liquide de lavage est pompé de la chambre (21) pendant que la pince d'arrêt (36) est fermée, provoquant ainsi le remplissage du côlon avec du liquide de lavage. Lorsque le côlon est plein, le pompage est arrêté et la pince d'arrêt (36) est ouverte pour permettre au liquide et aux matières fécales libérées dans le côlon d'être purgées à travers le conduit de décharge (32) et d'être récupérées dans la chambre de récupération (22).
