INFECTION-PREVENTING GASTROSTOMY KIT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an infection-preventing gastrostomy kit by which a catheter can be indwelled simply without infecting an wounded part and without a pain of a patient in the case of performing a gastrostomy operation via an endoscope.

SOLUTION: This infection-preventing gastrostomy kit has a stopper at one terminal and comprises a catheter fixed to the lumen of the stomach and the outside of the body through the abdominal wall, and an over tube for introducing the catheter into the lumen of the stomach. Hydrophilic treatment is performed to the lumen of the over tube or at least one of the outer walls of the catheter and the stopper.
