An infection-preventing gastrostomy catheter kit to be used in the gastrostomy, which can pass an intragastric retainer of a catheter easily and reliably through an infection-preventing sheath by an easy maneuver, and which can reduce the diameter of the infection-preventing sheath. The catheter kit comprises: a gastrostomy catheter (20) including a flexible, hollow PEG tube (21) reinforced with filaments (24), an deformable intragastric retainer (23) positioned at the trailing end of the PEG tube (21), and a tapered member (22) positioned at the leading end of the PEG tube (21) for retaining the leading end portion (40a) of a guide wire (40) inserted from a leading end hole (22a) thereof; and an infection-preventing sheath (1) including a flexible, hollow tubular body (2), and a socket member having a socket (4) positioned at the trailing end of the tubular body (2) for retaining the intragastric retainer (23), and pins (5), thereby removably sheathing the gastrostomy catheter (20). The gastrostomy catheter (20) may be provided with a housing sheath (60) for deforming and housing the intragastric retainer (23).

Trousse de cathéter de gastrotomie servant à empêcher les infections en gastrotomie et pouvant faire passer un élément de retenue intragastrique du cathéter sans difficultés à travers une gaine de prévention d'infections au moyen d'une simple manoeuvre, ce qui permet également de limiter le diamètre de cette gaine. Cette trousse comprend: un cathéter de gastrotomie (20) comportant un tube flexible creux en PEG (21) renforcé par des filaments (24), un élément de retenue intragastrique déformable (23) placé au niveau de l'extrémité arrière du tube de PEG (21) et un élément à rétrécissement conique (22) placé au niveau de l'extrémité avant du tube (21) afin de retenir la partie d'extrémité avant (40a) d'un fil de guidage (40) inséré dans un orifice (22a) d'extrémité avant dudit élément; une gaine (1) composée d'un corps tubulaire creux et souple (2) servant à empêcher l'infection et un élément de base dont la base (4) est placée à l'extrémité arrière du corps tubulaire (2) afin de retenir l'élément de retenue intragastrique (23), ainsi que des broches (5), ce qui permet de gainer de manière amovible le cathéter (20). Ce dernier peut être pourvu d'une gaine (60) formant boîtier afin de déformer et de loger l'élément de retenue intragastrique (23).
