Summary: | A stoma dilation device that includes a tubular support and an inflatable dilation portion located on the tubular support. The inflatable dilation portion includes a stiffening portion and inflation lumen. The device may have a retention portion configured to have a diameter upon full, unrestrained inflation that is greater than the diameter of the dilation portion. The device is designed to be placed in a patient to dilate the stoma for the installation of a catheter feeding tube. The device may be placed and withdrawn with the use of an endoscope which need be inserted into the patient only one time. The single insertion of the endoscope significantly reduces the trauma to the patient in comparison with multiple endoscope insertion methods.
Un dispositivo de dilatación de estoma que incluye un soporte tubular y una porción de dilatación inflable localizada en el soporte tubular. La porción de dilatación inflable incluye una porción de rigidez y luz de inflado. El dispositivo puede tener una porción de retención configurada para tener un diámetro, con el inflado total sin restricciones, que es mayor al diámetro de la porción de dilatación. El dispositivo se diseña para colocarse en un paciente para dilatar el estoma para la instalación de un tubo de alimentación por catéter. El dispositivo puede colocarse y extraerse con el uso de un endoscopio, el cual necesita insertarse en el paciente sólo una vez. La única inserción del endoscopio reduce significativamente el trauma al paciente en comparación con múltiples métodos de inserción de endoscopios. |
