| titleOfInvention | Devices and method for bi-directional adjustment of intragastric balloons, and shut-off valve |
| abstract | The present invention relates to the field of treatments for obesity, more specifically, to the provision of devices and a method for the bi-directional adjustment (inflation/deflation) of intragastric balloons, thus allowing the inflation or deflation of the volume of the intragastric balloon already in the patient's stomach. The present invention therefore discloses a first device configured to be introduced into the valve of the intragastric balloon and to be retained therein, and comprising a coupling element coupled to the body of the first device and configured to project outwards from the valve of the intragastric balloon. A second device is further disclosed that comprises a tubular extension configured to pass through the valve of the intragastric balloon, thus neutralizing its valve effect and allowing the bi-directional adjustment of same. In addition, a method is disclosed that carries out the steps of positioning an intragastric balloon already in the stomach using the aforementioned first device. In view of the above, the present invention provides devices and a method for the bi-directional adjustment of intragastric balloons, making it possible to adjust the intragastric balloon by inflation/deflation while in the patient's stomach with reduced incidence of ulcers. Finally, a new shut-off valve configuration is disclosed for use with an implantable catheter. |
