Abstract
A rectal injection device and a method of operating a rectal injection device. In one embodiment, the device includes: (1) a handle having a trigger associated therewith, (2) an extension tube extending from the handle and terminating in a head, (3) at least two needles coupled to the head and configured to move relative thereto between a retracted position and a deployed position and (4) a pullrod coupling the trigger and the needles and configured to cause the needles to move.
Claims20
A rectal injection device, comprising:
- a handle having a trigger associated therewith;
- an extension tube extending from said handle and terminating in a head;
- at least two needles coupled to said head and configured to move relative thereto between a retracted position and a deployed position;
- and
- a pullrod coupling said trigger and said needles and configured to cause said needles to move.
A method of operating a rectal injection device, comprising:
- inserting a head of said device into a rectum of an animal;
- pulling back said head to cause said head to seat against an anal dentate of the rectum;
- deploying a plurality of needles of said device from said head so that they enter said rectum proximate said anal dentate;
- and
- injecting said fluid through the plurality of needles into said anal dentate.
A rectal injection device, comprising:
- an elongated handle having a trigger coupled thereto;
- an internal device syringe located within said handle;
- an extension tube extending from said handle and terminating in a head configured to seat on an anal dentate of a rectum;
- at least three needles evenly spaced within said head and configured to move toward said handle from a retracted position to a deployed position;
- a pullrod coupling said trigger and said needles and configured to cause said needles to move;
- a needle extension indicator associated with said handle;
- and
- an injection complete indicator associated with said handle.
