Peristeen Plus Regular Rectal Catheter 10 Pieces

System for retrograde colon irrigation.
L Transanal irrigation with Peristeen Plus has the aim of promoting the evacuation of the contents of the lower colon and descending colon through the use of a rectal catheter with an inflatable balloon.
The product is indicated for patients suffering from fecal incontinence, chronic constipation and/or time-consuming bowel management procedures.
The product is indicated for adults (of both sexes) and children over 3 years of age. The pack of Peristeen catheters consists of ten regular rectal catheters that self-lubricate when in contact with water.
The rectal catheter is disposable.
The rectal balloon catheter is available in two sizes:
/> - the small catheter, labeled with a smiley face, is normally used for children;
- the regular catheter is normally used for adults.
For hygienic reasons, the Peristeen Plus transanal irrigation system is for single patient use.
Reuse of the pre-lubricated rectal catheter is not recommended, due to the risk of cross-contamination.
Reprocessing, washing, disinfection and/or re-sterilization could compromise the characteristics of the product, resulting in a further risk of physical harm or infection to the patient.
