RADIOPAQUE MARKER IN GRANULES BASED ON FOOD GRADE POLYPROPYLENE AND BARIUM SULFATE FU TIME-MARKERS FOR DETECTION OF INTESTINAL TRANSIT TIME PACK OF 10 CYLINDERS 20 PIECES
Time Markers
Description
Medical device marked CE 0546.
Hemispherical radiopaque granules made of non-toxic polyethylene and barium sulphate.
The main intended use of Time Markers is to follow exactly the path of ingested food throughout the digestive tract and in particular the intestinal tract without altering in the slightest the digestive function and the intestinal function.
They are used for patients with chronic constipation and to evaluate intestinal transit (slow/normal).
How to use
1. Take 10 radiopaque cylinders every day, for 10 days, always at the same time (preferably at 8:00 p.m.) during a meal, placing them in a wafer or mixing them into food (a spoonful of puree, yoghurt or grated apple). Do not suck, do not chew.
2. If indicated by the radiologist, on the morning of the 9th day, present yourself at the radiology center (to take a spoonful of barium).
3. Perform a plain abdominal x-ray on the 11th day. On the x-ray, the radiologist should count the number of radiopaque markers and indicate how many remain, respectively, 1) in the right colon up to the mid-transverse, 2) in the left colon from the mid-transverse to the sigma, 3) in the rectum.
4. Note the time of your last bowel movement (spontaneous or induced, by a laxative or enema, the day before taking the first 10 markers) and always note the time of any subsequent bowel movements. Show the sheet to the radiologist and then give it, together with the radiological report, to the doctor who prescribed the transit time test.
Warnings
- The diet should contain, in addition to the usual fruits and vegetables, a standard dose of indigestible waste (fiber). As far as possible, usual lifestyle habits should be maintained.
- It is preferable that the test is performed outside the menstrual period.
- Absolutely no laxatives should be taken, suppositories should be introduced, enemas or anal self-dilation should be performed until the X-ray examination has been completed.
- During the period of execution of the test the patient must not undergo other radiological examinations with contrast medium.
- Do not take constipating drugs (e.g. opiates such as codeine, morphine, diphenoxylate, antihistamines, anticholinergics). Possibly stop taking antidepressants and benzodiazepines.
However, inform your doctor if you are undergoing drug therapy.
- For any questions and before interrupting the examination, contact the proctology clinic or the doctor who prescribed it.
- Single-use and single-patient device. Do not reuse. Any reuse may seriously compromise or worsen the state of health due to the risk of infection to the patient and/or user and the compromise of the functionality and effectiveness of the device.
- Device to be sold only with a medical prescription.
- The doctor is required to verify that the devices do not remain in the intestine for more than 30 days.
- Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
- In the case of hiring non-self-sufficient elderly people or people with disabilities, the supervision of qualified personnel is essential.
- Safety and efficacy have not been proven in children under 18 years of age.
- The test is not recommended for women with confirmed or suspected pregnancy, since it involves a radiological examination.
- Do not use if pouches have tears or rips.
- SAPI MED declines all responsibility for any damage caused by improper use.
The device should not be used in patients with known or suspected hypersensitivity to barium sulphate or polypropylene. If in doubt, contact your doctor. Do not use if the package is damaged.
