20090287056 | Device to facilitate suctioning of fluid during gastrointestinal endoscopy - A device and method to facilitate efficient suctioning of fluid from a gastrointestinal lumen, such as a colonic lumen, through a suction channel of an endoscope during gastrointestinal endoscopy, such as a colonoscopy. The device comprises an elongated body member having a bulbous member at its first end and a handle at its second end. The bulbous member is sized and configured to move through the suction channel and extend past the open distal end of the endoscope to engage mucosa and/or debris and prevent blockage of the orifice leading to the suction channel. The body member is stiff enough to push the bulbous member through the suction channel, yet sufficiently flexible to move inside the endoscope, and sized to interfere as little as possible with the suctioning of fluid. A plurality of projecting members can be used on the body member to substantially center it inside the suction channel. | 11-19-2009 |
20100280318 | Colonoscope Guide and Method of Use for Improved Colonoscopy - A guide and method for tilting a colonoscope in the rectum leftward toward the descending colon to advance the colonoscope through the colon during colonoscopy. The guide comprises a rigid elongated body member and a handle attached to or integral with the body member. The body member has an insertion length selected so as to not be inserted past the patient's rectum. The body member can be curved or tubular to better engage the colonoscope. A soft liner can be utilized to protect the endoscope during use. Preferably, the body member has a semi-circular cross-section with a flexible inner tubular member attached thereto that receives the endoscope. A longitudinal slot facilitates loading the endoscope into the tubular member. In another embodiment, the body member comprises upper and lower rigid body members connected by an engaging mechanism. The user tilts the colonoscope with the guide to minimize or avoid sigmoid looping. | 11-04-2010 |
