ABSTRACT:
A device for administering a liquid into the bowel of a person. The device comprises a rigid conduit, a manually actuatable pump, and a reservoir holding the liquid. The conduit is of a general J-shape having an elongated straight proximal section and a curved distal section terminating in a tip having an aperture therein. The elongated proximal section is sufficiently long that when the person is seated on a toilet with the proximal section located between the person's legs the tip is located at the person's anus, so that he/she can readily insert the tip into the anus by manually manipulating the proximal section of the conduit. The pump is coupled to the proximal section of the conduit and is arranged to be squeezed by the person to pump the liquid from the reservoir through the conduit and out the aperture into the person's bowel.
