Apparatus for the treatment of volume deficiency disorders of body structures and related syndromes and, more particularly, apparatus that deliver fluid via a catheter (12) at a controlled pressure into a balloon (26) situated within or adjacent a body cavity (24A) to effect tissue expansion. A drainage mechanism (22), especially useful in treating bladder deficiencies, is disclosed which permits drainage of body fluids while the balloon is in its expanded state. The balloon (26) can be adapted to fit within a recess (30) of the catheter (12), for example, in a folded or rolled state, and the invention also provides means for delivering fluid (14, 14A, 40) at a controlled pressure into an inflatable balloon.
L'invention concerne un dispositif pour le traitement des troubles liés à une insuffisance de volume dans certaines structures corporelles, et autres syndromes associés, et elle concerne plus particulièrement un appareil qui administre des fluides via un cathéter (12) sous pression régulée, dans un ballonnet (26) situé à l'intérieur d'une cavité corporelle (24A) ou adjacent à ladite cavité, de manière à induire une dilatation tissulaire. L'invention concerne aussi un mécanisme de drainage (22), particulièrement utile dans le traitement des insuffisances de la vessie, qui permet d'évacuer les fluides corporels lorsque le ballonnet est dilaté. Ce ballon net (26) peut être adapté pour être logé dans un évidement (30) du cathéter (12), par exemple à l'état plié ou enroulé, et on décrit également un système d'administration de fluide (14, 14A, 40) sous pression régulée dans un ballonnet gonflable.
