Method and apparatus for insertion of self-draining urine apparatus into bladder

摘要

A device for the drainage of the bladder through the body's own urethra opening outside of the human body, comprising a tube-shaped body (10). The tube-shaped body is comprised: to assume a first contracted position and for taken up within the bladder as well as a to assume a second partially extended position. At least one thread (14) extends between the bladder and an opening of the urethra and is attached at a first end of the tube-shaped body so that the tube-shaped body can be extended from the first position to the second position during the application of a pulling force upon the thread. The tube-shaped body in the second partially extended position extends in such a manner so as to exceed the distance between the bladder and the point of the urethra's closing. The tube-shaped body is comprised in such a manner that it will return to the first position upon the release of the pulling force on the thread. ;The device is inserted into the bladder, in that a tube-shaped body is extended and inserted into an extended tube-shaped introducing member. The introducing member is inserted in through the urethra, so that the end piece of the tube-shaped body enters the bladder. The tube-shaped body is pushed out of the tube-shaped introducing member and into the bladder during the course of which it returns to the first contracted position completely within the bladder and in the course of which the placement of a thread that is attached to the tube-shaped body and that extends outside of the urethra is left to remain.
