Abstract:
Colorectal lavage device (800) including a drain assembly (801), and a colonic tube assembly (420) including an inflow tube (421), a flow control mechanism (430) to control flow through the inflow tube (421) and an outflow tube (850). The drain assembly (801) has a tubular body (810) defining an interior space (811L) and having a proximal portion (811) insertable into an anus of a person to cause the anus to constrict around the proximal portion (811) and thereby seal the proximal portion (811) against the anal wall, a distal portion including a distal end (815) having an opening in line with an opening in the proximal portion (811) and a side tube (816) arranged at an angle to the proximal portion (811). The inflow tube (421) passes through the tubular body (810) and has a tip (424) with one or more apertures (429) through which the lavage fluid operatively flows. The outflow tube (850) is connected to the side tube (816).
