Abstract

The capsule (1) for investigation and treatment of the digestive tract comprises a housing (2) which is made of a material resistant to all human or animal digestive secretions, completely surrounds a permanent magnet (3), and incorporates at least one space (4a, 4b) for at least one medicament (5a, 5b).

Description

Das Gebrauchsmuster betrifft eine Kapsel zur Untersuchung des Darm-Trakts auf mögliche Engstellen und die Behandlung dieser Engstellen durch in der Kapsel mitgeführte Medikamente.The Utility model relates to a capsule for examination of the intestinal tract on possible bottlenecks and the treatment of these bottlenecks by drugs carried in the capsule.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Kapsel mit den im Anspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmalen gelöst; vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.These The object is achieved by a capsule with the features listed in claim 1 solved; advantageous Embodiments and further developments are specified in the subclaims.

Zur Untersuchung des Darm-Trakts auf Blutungen, Entzündungen, Krebs usw. sind VIDEO-Kapseln in den Druckschriften US 2002 / 01655/92 A1, US 4, 278, 077 A , US 2002/01013417 A1 US 6, 240, 312 A , US 2001/0035902 A1 beschrieben.To examine the intestinal tract for bleeding, inflammation, cancer, etc. are VIDEO capsules in the pamphlets US 2002 / 01655/92 A1, US 4,278,077A , US 2002/01013417 A1 US 6, 240, 312 A , US 2001/0035902 A1.

Ihnen allen sie gemein, dass sie durch die Verdauungssekrete des Darm-Trakts nicht aufgelöst werden können und somit an einer Engstelle hängen bleiben können. In der Regel muß eine hängen gebliebene Kapsel operativ entfernt werden.them they all share that through the digestive secretions of the intestinal tract not be resolved can and thus get stuck at a bottleneck can. As a rule, one must hang remaining capsule are surgically removed.

Dem Gebrauchsmuster liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde eine Kapsel anzugeben welche den Darm-Trakt auf Durchgängigkeit prüft, damit anschließend die eingangs beschriebene VIDEO-Kapsel verabreicht werden kann. Weiterhin kann die Kapsel Medikamente zur Behandlung mit sich führen.the Utility model is the object of specifying a capsule which the intestinal tract on consistency verifies with it afterwards the VIDEO capsule described at the beginning can be administered. Furthermore, the capsule medication can be used for Treatment with you.

Die Kapsel kann dem menschlichen oder tierischen Körper oral verabreicht werden, sie enthält mindestens einen Permanentmagneten der von einem Gehäuse aus einem gegen alle Verdauungssekrete resistenten Material ummantelt ist. An diesem Gehäuse sind von beiden Seiten mindestens je eine Kappe aus einem auflösbaren Material angeformt die auch einen Hohlraum für die Aufnahme von Medikamenten bilden.The Capsule can be administered orally to the human or animal body, it contains at least a permanent magnet of a housing of a against all digestive secretions resistant material is sheathed. On this case are at least one cap each made of a dissolvable material from both sides which also forms a cavity for receiving medication form.

Wenn die Kapsel unaufgelöst den Darm-Trakt durchwandert und auf natürlichem Weg ausgeschieden wird, ist der Darm-Trakt durchgängig. Wenn aber die Kapsel an einer vorhanden Engstelle im Darm-Trakt hängen bleibt empfindet der Patient Schmerzen, vor allem deshalb weil die Kapsel durch die ständige Darmbewegung immer wieder an die Engstelle gedrückt wird. Um diese Schmerzen zu lindern kann mit Hilfe des innenliegenden Pennanentmagneten und einem von außen angelegten Magnetfeld die steckengebliebene Kapsel etwas von der Engstelle zurückgezogen und festgehalten werden, solange bis sich die Kappen aufgelöst haben. Anschließend wird das von außen angelegte Magnetfeld entfernt und das nichtauflösbare Gehäuse kann die Engstelle passieren und auf natürlichem Weg ausgeschieden werden.If the capsule undissolved wandering through the intestinal tract and excreted naturally, the intestinal tract is consistent. If but the capsule gets stuck at an existing constriction in the intestinal tract The patient feels pain, especially because the capsule through the constant Intestinal movement is repeatedly pressed to the bottleneck. To this pain can alleviate with the help of the internal Pennanentmagneten and one from the outside applied magnetic field the stuck capsule slightly from the bottleneck withdrawn and be held until the caps have dissolved. Subsequently it will be from the outside applied magnetic field removed and the non-dissolvable housing can pass through the bottleneck and on natural Way to be eliminated.

Die momentane Position der Kapsel kann wegen des in ihr enthaltenen Permanentmagneten übrigens auf sehr einfache Weise mittels einer oder mehrerer Kompassnadeln ermittelt werden. Selbstverständlich können auch bildgebende Verfahren der Medizin wie z. B. die Röntgen Technik oder die Ultraschalltechnik eingesetzt werden, um die Kapsel auf ihrem Weg durch das Verdauungssystem zu verfolgen.The momentary position of the capsule may be due to the contained in it By the way, permanent magnets in a very simple way by means of one or more compass needles be determined. Of course can also imaging techniques of medicine such. B. the X-ray technique or the ultrasound technique can be used to place the capsule on her Track through the digestive system.

Das Gebrauchsmuster wird nach folgend anhand eines in der Figur gezeichneten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert.The Utility model is the following by reference to a drawn in the figure embodiment explained in more detail.

Die insgesamt mit 1 bezeichnete Kapsel für die Untersuchung und Behandlung des Darm-Trakts besteht aus einem Gehäuse 2 aus einem gegen sämtliche Verdauungssekrete resistenten Material. Das Gehäuse 2 umschließt mindesten einen Permanentmagneten 3 geeigneter Feldstärke. An das Gehäuse 2 sind mittels zweier eng anliegenden Kappen 6a, 6b, zwei Hohlräume 4a, 4b angeformt, die jeweils ein Medikament 5a, 5b enthalten. Die Kappen 6a, 6b sind aus Materialien gefertigt, welche sich im Darm-Trakt durch die Verdauungssekrete auflösen.The total with 1 designated capsule for the examination and treatment of the intestinal tract consists of a housing 2 from a material resistant to all digestive secretions. The housing 2 encloses at least one permanent magnet 3 suitable field strength. To the case 2 are by means of two tight-fitting caps 6a . 6b , two cavities 4a . 4b molded, each containing a drug 5a . 5b contain. The caps 6a . 6b are made of materials that dissolve in the intestinal tract through the digestive secretions.
