ABSTRACT:
A hygiene device for cleaning body passageways formed between two openings by piercing. The device includes a syringe assembly and a disposable cleaning tip assembly including a thin, hollow needle shaft that is inserted into the piercing that terminates in a semi-spherical shaft end provided with multiple cleaning orifices. A semi-spherical shaft end is proved to prevent punctures to the walls defining the body passageway. The cleaning method includes the step of simultaneously inserting the semi-spherical shaft end into one of the two openings of the artificial body passageway to be cleaned while depressing the syringe plunger to force cleaning solution out into the artificial body passageway through the multiple cleaning orifices of the semi-spherical shaft end.
