{"title":"Peristeen","description":"\u003ch1\u003ePeristeen Transanal Irrigation System\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeristeen is a transanal irrigation system used to manage chronic bowel dysfunction — including neurogenic bowel, chronic constipation, and fecal incontinence — by gently instilling water into the rectum and lower colon to trigger a controlled, predictable bowel movement. For people living with spinal cord injury, spina bifida, multiple sclerosis, or other conditions affecting bowel control, this kind of routine can mean fewer accidents, less time spent on bowel care, and a real return of independence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe system works by inserting a rectal catheter, inflating a small balloon to hold it securely in place, and then delivering a measured volume of lukewarm water through a control unit. The balloon keeps the catheter seated during irrigation and prevents water from leaking back out, so the flush reaches far enough to be effective. Because the catheter and balloon are the components that see the most wear, having reliable replacements on hand is essential to keeping a consistent bowel-management schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this collection you'll find the \u003cstrong\u003eGE Healthcare Peristeen Plus Balloon Catheters Accessory Unit (29149)\u003c\/strong\u003e, designed for use with the Peristeen Plus system. These catheters are the direct-fit replacement component for your existing control unit, letting you restock the single-use part of your routine without repurchasing the entire kit. Keeping a supply ensures you're never forced to skip or delay irrigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMost users perform irrigation every day or every other day, often in the evening or morning to fit their lifestyle, and many are guided by a continence nurse when first starting. If you're new to transanal irrigation, work with your clinician on water volume and frequency, as these are tailored to each individual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor related bowel-care supplies, explore our enema supplies and broader \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/incontinence\"\u003eincontinence\u003c\/a\u003e collections.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/peristeen.oembed","provider":"Honest Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
