Abstract:
An ostomy support garment having a hole for receiving a stoma, said hole having a stabilised edge wherein the edge is provided with a flexible element allowing a deformation of the shape of the hole and providing a snug fit to the stoma ensures an easy application and removal combined with a sufficient support next to the stoma.
Abstract:
A base plate (100) comprising an adhesive wafer (102) and a convex supporting device (104). An ostomy appliance comprising a base plate with an adhesive wafer and a convex supporting device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a convex shell (1) for use in a base plate of an ostomy appliance. The convex shell comprises an annular ring (5) defined by an outer edge (6) and an inner edge (7) defining a through-going hole (8). The annular ring has at least four transition sections (9, 10, 11, 12) extending transversely across the annular ring, dividing the annular ring into at least a first, second, third and fourth segment (15, 16, 17, 18).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a convex shell for use in a base plate of an ostomy appliance. The convex shell (1) comprises an annular ring (5) defined by an outer edge (6) and an inner edge (7) defining a through-going hole (8). The annular ring has a higher flexibility around a first axis which is perpendicular to the centre axis of the through-going hole relative to the flexibility around a second axis having an angle to the first axis and being perpendicular to the centre axis of the through-going hole.
Abstract:
The current invention relates to a base plate (1) for an ostomy collection device, the base plate comprises at least one backing layer (3) whereon an outer adhesive layer (4) is disposed on the proximal side of said backing layer, wherein the outer adhesive layer encircles an inner adhesive layer (7) also disposed on the proximal side of at least one backing layer, said inner adhesive layer encircles a through - going hole (5) of the base plate defining a central axis A - A, wherein at least a part of the backing layer whereon the inner adhesive layer is disposed is extendable in a radial direction in respect to the central axis A - A. By allowing the backing layer to be radially extendable with the inner adhesive layer, the backing layer functions as a barrier to output from the stoma. Thus, output from the stoma will not come in direct contact with the distal side of the inner adhesive layer, which is shielded by the backing layer and thus extends the wear time of the ostomy appliance and reduces the risk that leakage may occur.
Abstract:
An ostomy device that comprises an adhesive wafer for attaching to the skin around the stoma. The wafer comprises an adhesive layer having a proximal adhesive side and a distal side, where the distal side is covered with a backing layer. The wafer comprises a central portion and a peripheral portion, and it comprises a proximal section located on the proximal side of the central portion and a distal section visually arranged on the distal side of peripheral portion, wherein the distal section changes colour when the proximal section is exposed to fluid.
