Abstract: A device for the sanitary drainage of the contents of an ostomy pouch into a waste receptacle (e.g., toilet) is provided. The device includes a base; an extendible shaft coupled to the base; a body that receives the ostomy pouch while it is attached to a patient and directs the contents of the pouch into a chute; a pivoting mechanism that couples the body to the shaft to adjust the angle there between; and a chute coupled to the body that directs the contents of the ostomy pouch into the waste receptacle. The device and the adjustability that it provides offers patients, particularly mobile patients, the ability to sanitarily and ergonomically empty their ostomy pouches into a waste receptacle, such as a toilet, while in a standing position.
