Gastric port system

1. A gastric port system for transport of materials to an interior of a body cavity comprising:

a port configured to be disposed between a first body cavity and an area adjacent to the first body cavity; the port further comprising a distal portion, a proximal portion, and a passageway therethrough;

a first bolster disposed on the proximal portion of the port, the first bolster including a first magnet;

a second bolster disposed on the distal portion of the port, the second bolster including a second magnet;

wherein at least one of the first bolster and the second bolster is slidable relative to the port;

wherein the first magnet is attracted to the second magnet such that the first bolster and the second bolster are drawn together; and

wherein the second bolster is a Malecot shaped bolster having at least one foldable member where the second magnet is disposed on the at least one foldable member.

2. A gastric port system for transport of materials to an interior of a body cavity of a patient comprising:

a port configured to be disposed between a first body cavity and an area adjacent to the first body cavity; the port further comprising a distal portion, a proximal portion, and a passageway therethrough;

a first bolster disposed on the proximal portion of the port, the first bolster including a first pocket configured to receive a first magnet;

a second bolster disposed on the distal portion of the port, the second bolster including a second pocket configured to receive a second magnet; and

wherein at least one of the first bolster and the second bolster is slidable relative to the port.

3. The gastric port system of claim 2 where the first bolster includes a plurality of first pockets configured to receive a plurality of magnets and the second bolster includes a plurality of second pockets configured to receive a plurality of magnets.

4. The gastric port system of claim 2 where the second bolster is a Malecot shaped bolster having a foldable member, and where the second pocket configured to receive the second magnet is disposed on the foldable member.

5. The gastric port system of claim 2 further comprising a catheter with a lumen for the passage of materials extending through at least a portion of the port.

6. The gastric port system of claim 2 where one of the first bolster and the second bolster is fixedly attached to the port.

7. The gastric port system of claim 2 where the first bolster is slidable relative to the proximal portion of the port and the second bolster is slidable relative to the distal portion of the port.

8. The gastric port system of claim 7 , where the port further comprises a first retaining element for limiting axial movement of the first bolster and a second retaining element for limiting axial movement of the second bolster.

9. The gastric port system of claim 2 where the port further comprises a retaining element for limiting axial movement of one of the first bolster and the second bolster.

10. The gastric port system of claim 2 where the first body cavity is an abdominal cavity of the patient.

11. The gastric port system of claim 10 where the area adjacent to the first body cavity is external to the patient.

12. The gastric port system of claim 2 where the first body cavity is an abdominal cavity of the patient and the area adjacent to the first body cavity is an intestine of the patient.

13. The gastric port system of claim 2 further comprising the first magnet removably disposed in the first pocket and the second magnet removably disposed in the second pocket.

14. The gastric port system of claim 2 further comprising a plurality of first and second magnets offering different magnetic properties configured to be disposed in the first pocket and the second pocket.

15. A medical device kit comprising:

a port configured to be disposed between a first body cavity and an area adjacent to the first body cavity; the port further comprising a distal portion, a proximal portion, and a passageway therethrough;

a first bolster disposed on the proximal portion of the port, the first bolster including a first pocket configured to receive a first magnet;

a second bolster disposed on the distal portion of the port, the second bolster including a second pocket configured to receive a second magnet; and

an array of magnets from which the first magnet and the second magnet may be selected.

16. The medical device kit of claim 15 further comprising packaging material contained the medical device kit.
