Know your Peristeen Plus
There are several parts of the Peristeen Plus system. It includes:
- Water bag with temperature indicator
- The control unit with pump for inflating balloon (if you use a balloon catheter) and pumping water, knob for regulating air & water)
- Screw top
- Coated rectal catheter (balloon or cone)
- Tubes
- Straps to secure the system while being used
When should I replace parts of my Peristeen Plus?
After some time, you will need to replace parts of your transanal irrigation system.
You should replace the Peristeen Plus control unit and screw top every 90 uses and the water bag should be replaced every 15 used.
If you are irrigating daily, this means you should replace the Peristeen Plus control unit and screw top every 3 months and the water bag should be replaced twice per month.
If you use your Peristeen Plus every other day, your control unit and screw top should be replaced every 6 months. The water bag should be replaced once a month.
Notice that you should keep the screw top for multiple water bags. Remember not to dispose of the screw top with each water bag.
The tubes should also be replaced after 90 uses but can also be replaced sooner if it becomes soiled.
Straps should be replaced when the elasticity weakens.
The coated rectal catheter is only for one time use. It cannot be reused and must be disposed of after you have completed your irrigation.
