Estimating the term…
The present invention relates to an enema nozzle (1;18) for an enema system, and wherein said enema nozzle (1;18) comprises a catheter (2) provided with a flexible retention member (3;19) arranged for retaining the enema nozzle in a body cavity in a retention stage, and wherein said retention member is only partially filled with a liquid (15;21) in the retention stage. The combination of a flexible retention member (3;19) that is only partially filled with a liquid (15;21), ensures that the liquid contained in the retention member easily can be displaced/moved around inside the retention member (3;19) during use. In this way the retention member (3;19) remains pliable and flexible enough to be able to conform and adapt to the shape of the colon during use.
An enema nozzle for an enema system, and wherein said enema nozzle comprises a catheter provided with a flexible retention member arranged for retaining the enema nozzle in a body cavity in a retention stage, and wherein said retention member is only partially filled with a liquid in the retention stage wherein the retention member is arranged as a closed system such that liquid neither can be added to the retention member nor removed from said retention member, said retention member has a predefined initial form and comprises an elongated stem part that via a smooth transition part extends into an expanded bulb part, and wherein the retention member surrounds the entire length of the catheter except the tip of said catheter.
