20090008279 | Container For Medical Devices - The present invention relates to a package comprising a container defining a compartment for containing a liquid and at least partly a medical device. The compartment extends in a longitudinal direction from a bottom of the container towards an opening of the container, wherein a first section of the compartment has a cross-sectional area which is smaller than a cross-sectional area of a second section of the compartment, and where the first section is arranged between the opening and the second section. As the cross-sectional area of the first section is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the second section the first section will function as a stop for the liquid in case the container is placed in a horizontal orientation. | 01-08-2009 |

The click-on mechanism may be provided integrated within the pump or it may be provided separate from but connected to the pump. The pump system may include a programmable pump such that it upon starting carries out a predetermined sequence. A method of providing a system for anal irrigation including an individually positionable pump is also provided. Furthermore, methods of using a pump including a click-on mechanism and a peristaltic pump are provided. | 03-11-2010 |
20100174252 | IRRIGATION SYSTEM WITH A PUMP - An irrigation system comprising: a reservoir with an inlet for pouring liquid into the reservoir, the inlet defining a closing means for closing the inlet; an insertion member defining an insertion end for insertion into a body cavity a human being, the insertion member defining at least one opening; and a liquid tube fluidly connecting the reservoir and having with the insertion member; wherein at least one of reservoir and the insertion member is permanently fastened to the liquid tube. | 07-08-2010 |
20100191183 | Tip for an Insertion Device - An insertion device for introduction into an opening in the body includes a tip section, a balloon section and a handling section. The balloon section has an expandable balloon-element and an inner balloon part, where the tip section, the inner balloon part and the handling section each have one or more liquid channels) in communication with each other. The inner balloon part and the handling section further have an air channel in communication with each other with an outlet in the inner balloon part. The balloon-element is radially expandable relative to the longitudinal axis of the insertion device by air/fluid injection through the air channel, and the tip section and the balloon-element are one integral element. | 07-29-2010 |
20100191194 | Strap for Supporting a Liquid Reservoir - A reservoir bag includes at least a first compartment for containing a liquid and has a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet allowing for liquid communication with the first compartment, where the liquid inlet is provided at one end of the bag and a strap is attached to the bag at a first attachment point in an area near the liquid inlet and attached to the bag at a second attachment point. | 07-29-2010 |
20100249752 | Pressure-controlled balloon catheter - An anal probe for use in connection with anal irrigation is provided. The probe comprises a tip part and shaft part, which may be separate from each other or one integral part. The probe is provided with retention means, which together with the tip part and the shaft part define a lumen. The probe is further provided with a pressure-sensitive valve. The probe has two configurations, a first configuration in which the inlet to the tip channel is closed and a second configuration in which the inlet is opened. The transition between the first configuration and the second configuration is controlled by the pressure-sensitive valve. During use, irrigation fluid will be pumped into the lumen and the inlet to the tip channel will be opened. | 09-30-2010 |
20100252469 | Container For Medical Devices - The present invention relates to a package comprising a container defining a compartment for containing a liquid and at least partly a medical device. The compartment extends in a longitudinal direction from a bottom of the container towards an opening of the container, wherein a first section of the compartment has a cross-sectional area which is smaller than a cross-sectional area of a second section of the compartment, and where the first section is arranged between the opening and the second section. As the cross-sectional area of the first section is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the second section the first section will function as a stop for the liquid in case the container is placed in a horizontal orientation. | 10-07-2010 |
20100280491 | Irrigation system - An irrigation system for irrigation of a body cavity, the system comprising a reservoir with an inlet for pouring liquid into the reservoir, an insertion member defining an insertion end for insertion into a body cavity through a body opening of a human being, the insertion member defining at least one opening, and a liquid tube fluidly connecting the reservoir with the insertion member, wherein the reservoir comprises front and rear walls formed of flexible, non-elastic polymer material, said walls having edges sealed together, and the reservoir comprises an upper liquid chamber and a lower liquid chamber, the two chambers being separated by a first one-way valve. | 11-04-2010 |
