Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a self-retaining enema nozzle (1,1′,1″,1′″) and an enema system (34) comprising said enema nozzle. The enema nozzle (1,1′,1″,1′″) comprises a catheter (2) provided with a retention member (3) arranged for being placed in a compact form during insertion in a body cavity and for being placed in an expanded form for retaining the enema nozzle in said body cavity, and wherein the enema nozzle (1,1′,1″,1′″) further comprises a restriction unit (4) arranged for placing the retention member (3) in its compact form. Since the restriction unit (4) holds, e.g. keeps, places and/or maintains the retention member (3) in the compact form both before and during insertion, any discomfort and/or harm that may be experienced using the conventional enema nozzles/devices is effectively prevented.
