International Classification:
A61F 606
US Classification:
128830, 128832, 128837
Abstract:
An cervical drug delivery apparatus having an absorbent cylindrical structure with a cervical cap attached to one end. One or more therapeutic agents are applied to the internal surface of the cervical cap. The cervical drug delivery apparatus is housed within an applicator and inserted into a patients vagina. Upon deployment of the cervical drug delivery apparatus, the cervical cap is automatically positioned over the patients cervix providing for the direct application of the therapeutic agents on the patients cervix. Alternative features of the cervical drug delivery apparatus include, a break-away cylindrical structure, a collapsible support structure for the cervical cap, an inflatable means for supporting the cervical cap, and the ability of the cylindrical structure and/or the cervical cap to contain one or more therapeutic agents that can be delivered by outside means.

Assignee:
West Virginia University - Morgantown WV
International Classification:
A61F 6/06
US Classification:
128837, 128838
Abstract:
A cervical isolation and delivery apparatus having a cervical cap removably connected to a syringe such that a bottom opening of the cervical cap is in communication with an internal chamber of the syringe. The syringe is an elongated hollow tube with an elongated rod slidable disposed within an internal chamber of the elongated hollow tube. The cervical cap is removably connected to an application end of the elongated hollow tube such that upon insertion of the apparatus into a patient's vagina, the cervical cap covers the patient's cervix while protecting the tissue surrounding the cervix. The patient's cervix is treated by placing medication, e. g. , one or more therapeutic agents, in the elongated hollow tube such that the elongated rod is in an extended position, inserting the apparatus into a patient's vagina, positioning the cervical cap over the patient's cervix, and pushing the elongated rod through the internal chamber of the elongated hollow tube until it is in a retracted position, thereby expelling the medication from the internal chamber into and through the cervical cap and into contact with the patient's cervix. The cervical cap covers and isolates the cervix thereby preventing the medication from leaking from the cervical area and irritating surrounding tissue.
