A device for irrigation of an oral cavity in a patient includes a suction element configured to be disposed in the oral cavity and configured to suction a fluid out of the oral cavity. The suction element also has one or more irrigation outlets configured to irrigate the oral cavity with the fluid. A suction line is fluidly coupled with the suction element and is configured to be fluidly coupled with a vacuum source. An irrigation line is fluidly coupled with the one or more irrigation outlets and is fluidly coupled with a source of the fluid.

The present invention relates to a dual-body drug administration device which administers drugs and removes mucus from the paranasal sinus through the nostrils in order to prevent or treat a paranasal sinus disease and, more specifically, to a device in which two injectors having adapters coupled thereto are integrally fixed by a fixing holder, the adapters of the fixed injectors are simultaneously brought into contact with both the nostrils, and then negative pressure is generated in the nasal cavity to pull out mucus from the paranasal sinus or administer a drug to the paranasal sinus.

A trans anal irrigation device that can be used on a bed. The device includes a rectal catheter connected to an irrigation fluid supply. A waste collection bag is also connected to the catheter. The catheter may be insertable in a seat attached to a fluid supply line. A valve in one of the catheter or seat selectably allows or prevents fluid communication between the catheter and a waste collection bag. The catheter may include an inflationless cuff made of a flexible material that permits it to be inserted in the rectum to prevent leakage around the exterior of the catheter.

A device for performing transanal irrigation includes an elongated neck having a proximal end and a flushing liquid channel passing therethrough. In a system including the device, the flushing liquid channel communicates with a source of flushing liquid. An insert is positioned on the proximal end of the neck of the device and is inserted into a body cavity of a user. The insert has a flushing liquid opening that is in fluid communication with the flushing liquid channel of the neck. A control housing is connected to the neck of the device and contains a pump. Pressurized flushing liquid flows through the device channel and exits through the flushing liquid opening of the insert when the pump is activated. A pair of support arms are attached to the device neck and rest on a sitting user's legs with the insert positioned below a body cavity of the user.

A system for irrigating and cleaning nasal cavities is provided. In some embodiments, the system includes a stand configured to hold an aqueous solution container. A primary incoming tube leading to a face mask device configured to be worn by a user. In one embodiment, the solution is gravity fed directed through the primary incoming tube into at least one port of the face mask device. A drain line leads from the face mask device to a collection container.

An adjustable bowel treatment arm (110) features a telescoping shaft (112) having a proximal end and a distal end. A handle (118) is secured to the distal end of the telescoping shaft, while a pivot junction (122) positioned at the proximal end of the telescoping shaft. A stem has a proximal end and a distal end, where the distal end of the stem is attached to the pivot junction. A head (124) is attached to the proximal end of the stem.

Disclosed is an auxiliary apparatus for fecal bypass for bypassing and discharging feces in the intestines.

Since supporting portions are connected to a single air flow tube to simultaneously expand when air is injected, and the size of the supporting portions is limited, the auxiliary apparatus for fecal bypass of the present invention does not damage the inner wall and outer wall (mucous membrane and serous membrane) of the intestines.

Also, the present invention comprises a liquid moving tube allowing a therapeutic liquid being refluxed quickly and automatically when the pressure inside the intestines increases, thereby preventing abdominal pain of a patient.

A machine vision based automatic needle cannula inspection system and methods of use. The system comprises of an inspection and control unit, image capture devices (32, 33), light sources (34, 35, 36, 37), a unit that makes the needle cannula (28) and the image capture device(s) (32, 33) rotate relative to each other, and a rejected part removal unit. By means of rotating the needle cannula (28) and image capture devices (32, 33) relatively, a plurality of images captured along the circumferential direction of the needle cannula are directly saved to a computer, the images are then screened, processed and analyzed to fulfill the automatic inspection of multiple quality and technical parameters of the needle cannula without the need to position the bevel area of cannula tip to a specific direction. Inspection parameters and accuracy can be set at any time, the system can automatically record classification and statistics of passed and rejected needle cannulae for query, and the rejected cannulae are removed automatically at next position. All the functions are completed at one work station, and needle cannula tips on both sides can be inspected simultaneously, if needed. Thereby the inspection efficiency and reliability are greatly improved, resulting in extremely extensive application prospects and huge economic values.

Kits, devices, systems and related methods for obtaining a nasopharyngeal sample utilize a rinsing fluid supply component and a collecting component, which may be used as separate modules or integrated with a housing to form a handheld unit that may be operated with a single hand. The dispensing component may include a flexible reservoir pump containing a supply of rinsing fluid, and a first nostril interface adapted to engage a first nostril of a patient and guide a stream of rinsing fluid into the patient's nasal cavity. The collecting component may include a collection container and a second nostril interface adapted to engage a second nostril of a patient and collect effluent. An absorbent shield may be arranged on the integrated unit to absorb stray fluid.

An orifice irrigation device includes a tubular component having a distal end and a proximal end and at least one bore axially extending from the proximal end to the distal end, the bore terminating at a plurality of orifices which extend at an angle from the bore; one or more flared wings coaxially positioned with respect to the tubular component, the at least one flared wing having a rim at its distal end; and one or more open flushing channels defined by the one or more flared wings, the flushing channels being defined by the side edges of the one or more flared wings.
