Like any other medical procedure the colonic irrigation equipment is a necessity. The equipment complexity depends on the purpose or usage. Some of them are for individual or small scale user whereas others are for multiple users. One of the equipment needed is the medical ozone generators; which are used mixing the oxygen and hydrogen peroxide to the water to improve the effectiveness of the colonic procedure. This purifies the water and makes it safe to be used in the cleansing of the colon. This combination is very lethal to body parasites, viruses and most of the pathogens that attack our bodies. None of these organisms can survive the environment created by the mixture. It also eliminates cross contamination of a host of diseases as TB and other contact diseases. It can still be used to sanitize other equipment used in the procedure.
The medical ozone generators come in different forms as; home discharge water ozone generator which is meant for small scale usage and is the least expensive; laboratory ozone generator which has a discharge dielectric cell for a large scale production and going for much more than the home ozone discharge generator. This is the most used type in medical facilities where colonic processes are done; the portable medical ozone generator which is limit in variable controls and consumes lesser power and the PVZ ozone generator with mini air compressor. This type uses the ultra violet cathode to purify the air. These equipment also come with pumps which are regulated into different desired water pressure levels.
Other useful colonic irrigation equipment is the irrigation board which is used as the surface where the patient comfortably lies when the colonic procedure is being done. The board is cushioned and comes with several pillows to add the comfort to the patient thus he feels relaxed. The board can also be use as a medical massage board. It has a plastic cover that stops the liquid waste from permeating in the under sponges. In some more sophisticated medical institution other equipment are included as the music stereos, electric massage gadgets and timers.
The other crucial colonic irrigation equipment is the speculum which enables the purified water to safely and comfortably enter the colon. The speculums come in either reusable or disposable versions. The reusable one are slowly being overtaken by the disposable due to the following factors; research has greatly reduced the cost of their production thus they are very cheap; in fact their cost is cheaper than the cost of disinfect the reusable once, there is ease of connecting to the water purifying machines, increase of communicable diseases that harden the process of cleaning after use and increased allergy to materials that make the reusable speculums as stainless steel.
Some of these equipments can be replaced as the medical ozone generators by methods as hanging water bag from shower bars. Instead of timers one can use wrist watch or a clock to know the time spent. The alternatives are commonly being used for home therapies where economy is considered.
