Authors' objectives:
Description of Technology: The Peristeen Anal Irrigation (AI) System (Coloplast) is designed to minimize the likelihood of involuntary bowel leakage or constipation. The device includes a rectal catheter with an incorporated inflatable balloon, a control unit with pump, a water bag, and tubing. AI introduces water into the colon via the rectal catheter. Within the rectal catheter, an incorporated inflatable balloon is intended to assist in holding the catheter in place, thereby promoting adequate evacuation of the contents of the lower colon.
Patient Population: The Peristeen AI System is indicated for use by children (2 years to < 12 years of age), adolescents (12 to < 18 years of age), transitional adolescents (18 to < 21 years of age), and adults with neurogenic bowel dysfunction who experience fecal incontinence, chronic constipation, and/or time-consuming bowel management procedures. This health technology assessment is limited to an evaluation of the Peristeen AI system in children, adolescents, and transitional adolescents.
Clinical Alternatives: Other approaches to bowel management in pediatric populations include alterations in
diet and fluid consumption, laxatives, suppositories, enemas, digital evacuation, anorectal or perianal stimulation, abdominal massage, electrical or magnetic stimulation, pelvic floor muscle training, biofeedback, behavioral therapy, pharmacologic agents, botulinum toxin, and surgical interventions such as Malone antegrade continence enema.
