Aspects of the present invention provide a method and a remote-controlled system for delivering and applying water, medicines, cleaning solutions to a region of the body that may not otherwise be easily accessible (e.g., to the perianal region). The system is designed to enable the users to relax and enjoy on a bidet seat system that can apply water, medicines, cleaning solutions at a desirable angle that they can control, while the user is in a relatively comfortable and efficacious position for the treatment. The apparatus include a toilet seat assembly, a drying nozzle assembly, a spraying nozzle assembly, and a medicine delivery assembly. A method and apparatus is provided for using and delivering medicine, washing, cleaning, and drying a region of a human body.

An apparatus, system and method for a handpiece for ocular surgical. Included may be at least: a proximal portion having at least inlet ports for irrigation tubing and aspiration tubing, and providing an irrigation fluidic pathway extending therethrough from the irrigation tubing inlet port, and an aspiration fluidic pathway extending therethrough from the aspiration inlet port; a distal portion terminating in an emulsifying tip, and providing an aspiration pathway terminating in an aspiration output, and at least one irrigation pathway terminating in at least one irrigation output; and a swivel ball provided at a base of the proximal portion and having a first opening to the irrigation fluidic pathway, and a second opening to the aspiration fluidic pathway, which seats within a socket cup provided at an upper end of the distal portion.

Disclosed embodiments relate to devices and systems for providing both negative-pressure therapy and instillation, In some embodiments, both negative-pressure and instillation may be provided to a tissue site in a low-profile context that may also prevent siphoning of instillation fluid during negative pressure application. For example, a single bridge may include a negative-pressure pathway with supports and an instillation pathway, and the instillation pathway may be configured with respect to the negative-pressure pathway so that at least a portion of the instillation pathway collapses upon application of negative pressure to the negative-pressure pathway. Collapse of at least a portion of the instillation pathway may be sufficient to close the instillation pathway.

The present disclosure generally relates to fluid control valves for delivering and/or aspirating fluid during ophthalmic surgeries and procedures. In one embodiment, a valve assembly includes a first portion configured to fluidly couple with a gas supply line and a second portion configured to fluidly couple with a liquid supply line and an infusion line. The first portion and the second portion are partitioned or separated from each other by a filter having a hydrophobic membrane configured to prevent the flow of liquids therethrough while allowing the free flow of gas. Accordingly, an infusion liquid may be flown through the second portion while gases may be simultaneously aspirated through the first portion, without any liquids travelling into the gas supply line. The gas supply line may thus be utilized to vent or purge gases from the infusion line before or during performance of surgical procedures.

The invention relates to a combination drug with increased storage stability containing chondroitin sulfate (4.5 mg/ml), hyaluronic acid (16 mg/ml), a phosphate buffer (pH 6.1 to 7.9) and an electrolyte (e.g., an alkali salt, e.g., sodium chloride) for the treatment inflammations of the urogenital tract, in particular of the bladder, in particular for the treating cystitis, and to an instillation kit containing said drug.

A personal hygiene device comprises a tubular body constructed of a substantially watertight flexible material. The tubular body defines a cavity. An opening in the tubular body provides access to the cavity, which opening is selectively closable to create a watertight seal. A spray member, having a first end and a second end, is operatively connected to the tubular body at the first end. A channel in the spray member extends from the first end to the second end. The channel is exposed to the cavity at the first end. The second end of the spray member has openings that are exposed to the channel. Material in the cavity can travel from the cavity through the channel in the spray member, and exit through the openings in its second end. An adjusting means is selectively operable to control the amount of material that flows into the channel.

A medical instrument for diagnostic, therapeutic, or surgical measures in a cavity in the body of a patient may include a proximal region, which is provided and designed for arrangement outside the body, a distal region, which is provided and designed for arrangement inside a cavity in the body, a supply structure for delivering a fluid to the cavity, wherein the supply structure reaches from a first coupling in the proximal region of the medical instrument to an outlet in the distal region, and a discharge structure for discharging a fluid from the cavity, wherein the discharge structure reaches from an inlet in the distal region of the medical instrument to a second coupling in the proximal region of the medical instrument. The flow resistance of the supply structure is greater than the flow resistance of the discharge structure.

An all-in-one, sterile, waste- and mess-free device for cleaning two-sided bodily punctures is described. The device may be a hand-held device that encloses around both sides of a two-sided bodily puncture and provides targeted cleaning fluid soaking, fully or partially submerged, without the user ever needing to touch or disturb jewelry in the two-sided bodily puncture. Cleaning fluid soaking involves cleaning fluid, without elevated pressure, soakingly contacting a two-sided bodily puncture to: (1) kill microorganisms in the area surrounding the two-sided bodily puncture (e.g., skin surrounding openings of the two-sided bodily puncture); and/or (2) remove cellular debris and/or microorganisms from the area surrounding the two-sided bodily puncture.

Apparatus, kits, and methods for administering a substance are presented. A device for administering a substance includes an elongated body having a proximal end and a distal end, the elongated body defining an internal chamber extending between the proximal end and the distal end to direct the substance to the distal end, the distal end to connect with a tip, the tip to be at least partially inserted into an orifice of a body lumen of a subject, the tip having a shape configured to reduce leakage of the substance from the orifice upon the at least partial insertion. The tip includes an opening to pass the substance from the internal chamber into the body lumen; and a transducer to emit an ultrasound wave from the tip into the body lumen, thereby administering the substance to tissue in the body lumen.
