IRRIGATION SYSTEM WITH PRESSURE SENSING AND CONTROL

An irrigation system for anal or stomal irrigation includes a reservoir, a tubing system providing a first flow path between the reservoir and a catheter, and a pressure channel separate from the first flow path. A pump is operable to move the liquid through the first flow path from the reservoir an...

Zusammenfassung:An irrigation system for anal or stomal irrigation includes a reservoir, a tubing system providing a first flow path between the reservoir and a catheter, and a pressure channel separate from the first flow path. A pump is operable to move the liquid through the first flow path from the reservoir and through the catheter. A control system is connected to the tubing system. A connector couples the tubing system to the catheter, where the connector includes a chamber coupling the pressure channel to the first flow path, with a membrane located in the chamber between the first flow path and the pressure channel. A pressure sensor communicates with the control system which operates the pump to control the anal or the stomal irrigation with the liquid based on the pressure sensed in the first flow path.
