Introduction

Millions of people around the world are affected by bowel issues 1. Left untreated, this can have a negative impact on many aspects of a person’s life – including missing important life events, due to anxiety about managing their condition*. 

We’ve developed a range of products, including our transanal irrigation (TAI) systems, designed to support people living with bowel dysfunction.

Transanal irrigation

To help make life easier for those with bowel issues, we offer transanal irrigation (TAI) systems, a minimally invasive method of achieving control over your bowel. This involves introducing body-temperature water through a rectal catheter to evacuate your bowel when and where you choose.

Low-volume TAI

Low-volume TAI systems often consist of a small water reservoir attached to a catheter. These irrigation systems usually clean out the rectum4, due to their low volume.  

High-volume TAI

High-volume TAI delivers more water to the bowel, and can empty the rectum, sigmoid colon, and descending colon5. This provides more thorough irrigation and can enable some people to remain continent for up to two days at a time5.
