A device sized and shaped for alleviating pelvic organ prolapse when inserted into a vagina, comprising: a treatment rendering portion configured to be adjustable between a first, collapsed state and a second, expanded state, where the second expanded state extends substantially in three dimensions.

Three dimensional devices and methods for prolapse alleviation

A device sized and shaped for alleviating organ prolapse when inserted into a vagina, comprising: (a) an adjustably flexible, substantially planar ring; (b) a telescoping locking mechanism extending in a central axis, but within the plane of the ring, from a first side of the ring to a second side of the ring, comprising, (i) a first element extending from a side of the ring including an elastic diamond shaped snap, and, (ii) a second element extending from a second side of the ring, opposite the first element, including at least one window configured as a counterpart to the snap, wherein the device is configured to be in an expanded, treatment rendering state when the snap is released into the window and a reduced profile state when the snap is not in the window.

Devices and methods for pelvic organ prolapse alleviation

A device sized and shaped for alleviating organ prolapse when inserted into a vagina, comprising: (a) an adjustably flexible, substantially planar ring provided with at least one opposing snapping element; (b) a central rod extending at least partially through the ring transverse to the snapping elements, where the central rod is provided with counterpart slots configured for insertion of the snapping elements therein; and, (c) a connection block, co-axial with the central rod and slidable thereover to transition the device from an expanded state to a collapsed state, configured with slots which align with the counterpart slots of the central rod for passage of at least one snapping element therethrough when the device is in the collapsed state.

A fecal incontinence device for insertion into a vagina, comprising: a plurality of shell segments, which together form an enclosed cylinder with rounded ends in a collapsed state of the device, wherein one of the cylindrical shells is disposed in the device facing a posterior wall of the vagina when the device is inserted into the vagina; a pressure generating structure attached to and abutting the posterior-facing cylindrical shell; and, a state-changing mechanism configured to reversibly transition the device from the collapsed state to an expanded state.
