Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6241877
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The device (10, 36, 38, 42, 68) applies a negative pressure to an endoluminal surface in the body of a patient to facilitate healing of a wound in the endoluminal surface. The device comprises a flexible porous element (14) with a peripheral outer face (32) for contact with the wound, the outer face being defined between opposite proximal and distal ends of the porous element. A suction tube (30) for being connected to a suction source externally of the patient's body is provided in fluid communication with the porous element to apply a negative pressure to the wound via the outer face (32) of the porous element (14) upon operation of the suction source. The porous element (14) has at least one through passageway (16) extending from its proximal end to its distal end for passage of bodily substances of the patient through the porous element. The device can also include a drainage tube (22) for collection and drainage of the bodily substances from the patient, wherein the drainage tube is received in the through passageway of the porous element. The device is particularly suitable for assisted healing of anastomotic wounds but its use is not limited thereto.
