    摘要: A device for temporary residence at a predetermined location of the gastrointestinal tract of a subject is described. The device transfers from a closed configuration into an expanded configuration. The device is retained at the predetermined location and transfers from the expanded configuration into an emptying configuration in which the device moves past the predetermined location. The device enables localized medical methods in the gastrointestinal tract of the subject.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide swallowable devices, preparations and methods for delivering drugs and other therapeutic agents within the GI tract. Many embodiments provide a swallowable device for delivering the agents. Particular embodiments provide a swallowable device such as a capsule for delivering drugs into the intestinal wall or other GI lumen. Embodiments also provide various drug preparations that are configured to be contained within the capsule, advanced from the capsule into the intestinal wall and degrade to release the drug into the bloodstream to produce a therapeutic effect. The preparation can be operably coupled to delivery means having a first configuration where the preparation is contained in the capsule and a second configuration where the preparation is advanced out of the capsule into the intestinal wall. Embodiments of the invention are particularly useful for the delivery of drugs which are poorly absorbed, tolerated and/or degraded within the GI tract.

    摘要: A method is provided in which continuous suction alternately removes fluid through an aspiration lumen from the stomach and adjacent small intestine and returns the fluid with gravity a short distance downstream. The only aspirate permanently discarded is that volume of inflow to the feeding site that momentarily exceeded peristaltic outflow. Feeding is also continuous, which allows for a smaller and more comfortable feeding tube. This frequent aspiration and feeding serves to provide the maximum safe nutrition, while preventing overfeeding and its associated risks of intestinal distention.
