ABSTRACT:
A colon irrigation device includes a tube flexible material with a second tube of smaller dimensions running along the inside surface of the larger external tube. Outlet apertures are provided for releasing irrigation fluid first through the inner tube or conduit, and inlet apertures are provided on the larger outer tube for receiving the irrigation fluid at a distal end of the colon. An enlarged end of the outer tube facilitates gripping of the tube once inserted into the colon so that it can be brought to the area to be irrigated. In the alternative, an inflatable bladder or balloon is provided which supplied with compressed air through a third tube running along the inside surface of the larger outer tube which can be inflated once the device is inserted into the colon and inflated to facilitate the gripping.
