摘要:
This invention relates to systems for securing a tube (e.g. feeding tube) and/or a patient interface or a dermal patch to a user. One embodiment comprises a holder, an interface side of the holder attachable to the patient interface or the dermal patch for securing a feeding tube to the patient interface or the patch, the holder comprising at least a first channel or recess for receiving the feeding tube to couple the feeding tube to the patient interface. Another embodiment comprises a patient interface itself comprising a backing for positioning on a patient's face, a dermal patch having a patient side and an interface side, the patient side of the patch attachable to the user, the patch comprising at least a first flap portion attachable to the tube for affixing the tube to the patch, a two-part releasable connection arrangement for releasably securing the patient interface to the patch.

The present disclosure describes a trans-gastric jejunal tube (TJ) that avoids migration of the tube upwardly into the stomach. It does this because of alternating stiff and flexible sections. The stiffer sections resist migration and the more flexible or softer portions allow the tube to bend around the pyloris sphincter 5 and into the jejunum. This also allows for a larger diameter feeding lumen than would otherwise be the case.

The invention relates to a percutaneous gastrostomy probe comprising a tube (1), a means of internal retention (2) and an external collar (3). The probe according to the invention is characterized essentially in that the means of internal retention (2) consists of a non-biodegradable inflatable balloon (21) connected to separate anchorage means (22) held in place by threads (23) sutured to external points (24) and made entirely of a biodegradable polymer or copolymer such that the nature of the polymers employed, their dosage and their number molar mass are determined in such a way as to obtain a connection which maintains its mechanical properties of retention until the stomach and abdominal walls have adhered together.
摘要:
A medical device and methods of using the medical device to hold a percutaneous endoscopic gastrotomy (PEG) tube. The medical device (100) includes a front side and a back side. The front side includes a left section (115), a middle section (110), and a right section (105). The left section and the right section each include a refastenable material. The back side includes an adhesive section (210) and a non-adhesive section (205). The adhesive section adheres the device to the skin of a recipient. A PEG tube placed in the middle section is secured within the device by applying pressure to the non-adhesive section until the refastenable material of the left and right sections engage. Conversely, the tube may be removed without affecting the adhesion of the device to the recipient or the integrity of the tube by disengaging the left and right sections of the device.
摘要:
A support for supporting a portion, external to a patient, of a tube partly embedded in the patient. The support includes a torso embracing portion for embracing a torso of the patient. The support also includes one or more tube holding portions for holding the tube. The tube holding portion(s) are fixable to, or part of, the torso holding portion.
摘要:
A tube management system has a tube receiving element, a base element, and attachment elements extending from the base element. The tube receiving element is provided with a gripping element that functions to prevent tube migration. The attachment elements are provided within openings for receiving a device which is used to secure the tube management system to a patient.

A medical dilating instrument (100) includes a needle body (10) having a pointed needle tip (11), an elongated guide portion (30) formed so that a tip (31) thereof is duller than the needle tip (11), and a trunk portion (50) having a larger diameter than the guide portion (30). A cannular needle (20) is configured by connecting the needle body (10) and the guide portion (30), and a dilator (40) is configured by connecting the guide portion (30) and the trunk portion (50). The dilator (40) includes a diameter-enlarging portion (42) that increases in diameter from a tip end side toward a base end side. The diameter-enlarging portion (42) is provided on one or both of the guide portion (30) and the trunk portion (50).
摘要:
An organ-fixing instrument and a gastric fistula catheter able to accomplish proper suturing reliably and through a simple procedure. An organ-fixing instrument 10 is structured by a transversely elastic, cylindrical sheath 12, and a body surface installation part 11 attached to the base part of the sheath 12. In the body surface installation part 11 there are provided a through-hole 13 communicating with the sheath 12 and a pair of needle through-holes 14, 15. The sheath 12 is structured by a web-shaped covering part 16 made from a resin, a plurality of reinforcing parts 17 provided at the base end portion of the covering part 16, and skeletal parts 18a, 18b provided at the tip portion of the covering part 16. A suturing thread catch 18 projected in an axial direction by compression in the axial direction is structured by the tip side portion of the covering part 16 and the skeletal parts 18a, 18b.
