 Sue N,

The Higginson Syringe is no longer available in most, if not all, retail stores. The online option may be about your only way to obtain one. They are not all that spendy on EBAY, Amazon, or possibly TEMU.

While most of the Higginson style have relatively short hoses, additional tubing can be attached along with the various different style nozzles or colon tubes. This would allow the source of the enema solution to be placed in a more convenient location and may help avoid spills. I attach mine inline with a combination syringe (hot water bottle) and don't worry about inadvertent spillage, especially if your patient may be inclined to move about or resist.

Some of us around here are very experienced with enemas and are willing to mentor, assist, or coach others who may have questions. I will reply to emails should you desire any further info.

Best wishes to all of you who frequent these sites!
