Description

La présente invention concerne les traitements vaginaux, et plus particu lièrement un dispositif perfectionné pour traitement vaginal améliorant l'efficacité et la commodité du traitement.The present invention relates to vaginal treatments, and more particularly to an improved device for vaginal treatment improving the efficiency and convenience of the treatment.

Un sait que dans le domaine de la gynécologie on utilise fréquernment des compositions adaptées au traitement approprié, présentées sous forme d'ovules, de comprimés, de mousses, etc, notamment pour le traitement d'infections locales ou pour faciliter des cicatrisations.It is known that in the field of gynecology, compositions suitable for the appropriate treatment are frequently used, presented in the form of ova, tablets, foams, etc., in particular for the treatment of local infections or to facilitate healing.

Les ovules conviennent le mieux à la majorité des traitements car elles sont parfaitement adaptées aux compositions le plus souvent utilisées.Eggs are best suited for most treatments because they are perfectly suited to the compositions most often used.

Toutefois les compositions qu'elles libèrent ont tendance à couler,
Ce qui nuit à la commodité du traitement et provoque des souillures; de plus, la quantité de principe actif dans la zone à traiter se trouve réduite dans des proportions importantes et l'efficacité du traitement est alors considérablement diminuée. L'utilisation de comprimés à la place des ovules permet de limiter les inconvén#ents résultant de l'écoulement de la composition, mais les comprimés sont moins bien adaptés aux traitements vaginaux et s'avèrent très généralement moins efficaces que les ovules.However, the compositions they release tend to flow,
This affects the convenience of the treatment and causes soiling; in addition, the amount of active ingredient in the area to be treated is reduced in significant proportions and the effectiveness of the treatment is then considerably reduced. The use of tablets in place of the ovules makes it possible to limit the drawbacks resulting from the flow of the composition, but the tablets are less well suited to vaginal treatments and prove very generally less effective than the ova.

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif pour traitements vaginaux évitant les inconvénients ci-dessus et permettant d'améliorer llefficaoicé du traitement par rapport aux formes usuelles d'application, dans de bonnes conditions de commodité et de facilité.The present invention relates to a device for vaginal treatments avoiding the above drawbacks and making it possible to improve the effectiveness of the treatment compared with the usual forms of application, under good conditions of convenience and ease.

Le dispositif conforme à la présente invention est constitué par la combinaison d'un support absorbant et d'une ovule dont l'enveloppe présente une forme particulière permettant la fixation sur le support.The device according to the present invention consists of the combination of an absorbent support and an ovum whose envelope has a particular shape allowing it to be fixed to the support.

Plus particulièrenent, le dispositif conforme à la présente invention comporte une ovule contenant une composition pharmaceutique adaptée au tracement à appliquer, et un support souple absorbant, de forme sensiblement cylindrique; l'ovule présente un diamètre légèrement infe rieur à celui du support, et s'adapte sur une extrémité du support souple absorbant, au moyen d'une extension de ses parois du cOté du support, cette extension de Forme cylindrique sensiblement de même diamètre que le corps de l'ovule, étant maintenue sur le support souple par pression. More particularly, the device according to the present invention comprises an ovum containing a pharmaceutical composition suitable for the tracing to be applied, and a flexible absorbent support, of substantially cylindrical shape; the ovum has a diameter slightly smaller than that of the support, and fits on one end of the absorbent flexible support, by means of an extension of its walls on the side of the support, this extension of cylindrical shape substantially of the same diameter as the body of the ovum, being held on the flexible support by pressure.

Suivant une forme préférentielle de réalisation de l'invention, les bords de l'extension cylindrique comportent une nervure, sur la face interne, formant ainsi un léger rétrécissement au niveau de l'ouverture, assurant un meilleur maintien de l'ovule sur le support souple.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the edges of the cylindrical extension have a rib on the internal face, thus forming a slight narrowing at the opening, ensuring better retention of the ovum on the support. flexible.

Comme indiqué ci-dessus, le support absorbant présente une certaine souplesse tandis que l'ovule est relativement rigide; ces propriétes, ainsi que les formes et dimensions respectives de ovule et du support assurent un maintien en place efficace sans qu'il soit nécessaire de recourir à d'autres moyens de fixation.As indicated above, the absorbent support has a certain flexibility while the ovum is relatively rigid; these properties, as well as the respective shapes and dimensions of the ovum and of the support, ensure effective holding in place without the need for other fixing means.

Le support est réalisé en un matériau absorbant et souple, tel que le coton, présentant les qualités requises pour une utilisation médicale.The support is made of an absorbent and flexible material, such as cotton, having the qualities required for medical use.

L'ovule est fabriquée suivant les techniques usuelles, seule sa forme étant particulière comme indiqué ci-dessus. On peut donc choisir librement les matières constitutives en fonction de l'utilisation prévue, les seules conditions requises étant le choix d'une matière suffisamment rigide, et la forme appropriée rappelée ci-dessus.The ovum is produced according to the usual techniques, only its shape being particular as indicated above. We can therefore freely choose the constituent materials according to the intended use, the only conditions required being the choice of a sufficiently rigid material, and the appropriate form mentioned above.

Les dimensions du dispositif suivant l'invention peuvent être de l'ordre de 5 à 8cm pour la longueur et 1 à 2cm pour le diamètre. La longueur du support absorbant peut astre d'environ 4cm, celle de ltovule et de son extension étant de 3cm environ, la longueur de l'extension elle-meme étant de l'ordre de lcm. The dimensions of the device according to the invention can be of the order of 5 to 8 cm for the length and 1 to 2 cm for the diameter. The length of the absorbent support can be about 4 cm, that of the ovule and its extension being about 3 cm, the length of the extension itself being of the order of l cm.

La mise en place du dispositif conforme à l'invention est extrêmement simple et ne soulève généralement aucune difficulté. Le support permet de retenir la composition libérée par l'ovule contre la zone à soigner, et la matière absorbante qui le constitue retient les faibles quantités de composition susceptibles de s'écouler, évitant ainsi toute perte ou souillure.The installation of the device according to the invention is extremely simple and does not generally raise any difficulty. The support makes it possible to retain the composition released by the ovum against the area to be treated, and the absorbent material which constitutes it retains the small quantities of composition liable to flow, thus avoiding any loss or soiling.

Les caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention apparaitront plus en détail de la description suivante, relative à une forme préférentielle de réalisation, en référence au dessin annexé qui représente une coupe longitudinale d'un dispositif conforme à l'invention.The characteristics and advantages of the present invention will appear in more detail from the following description, relating to a preferred embodiment, with reference to the appended drawing which represents a longitudinal section of a device according to the invention.

Comme le montre la figure 1, le dispositif suivant l'invention comporte un support 1 souple et absorbant et une ovule 2 contenant une composition de traitement 3. Les parois de l'ovule 2 se prolongent au-delà de la paroi frontale 4 par une extension 5 qui enserre l'extrémité du support 1. Les bords de l'extension 5 présentent une rainure 6 formant un resserrement pinçant le support 1 et facilitant le maintien en place.As shown in FIG. 1, the device according to the invention comprises a flexible and absorbent support 1 and an ovum 2 containing a treatment composition 3. The walls of the ovum 2 extend beyond the front wall 4 by a extension 5 which encloses the end of the support 1. The edges of the extension 5 have a groove 6 forming a constriction pinching the support 1 and facilitating the maintenance in place.

Un cordon 7 est prévu à la base du support 1 pour permettre de retirer aisément le dispositif en fin de traitement. A cord 7 is provided at the base of the support 1 to allow the device to be easily removed at the end of treatment.

Le dispositif décrit ci-dessus est notamment adapté aux traitements cicatrisants ou anti-infectieux dont il permet de réduire la durée de plus de 50 en raison de sa plus grande efficacité par suite de la limitation des pertes de composition.The device described above is particularly suitable for wound healing or anti-infective treatments, the duration of which is reduced by more than 50 because of its greater effectiveness due to the limitation of losses in composition.
