Abstract: A universal vent device for the pouch of an ostomy appliance. The vent device is attachable to any pouch which has an enclosure wall of relatively thin pliable plastics material or the like. The vent device comprises a housing member for a gas-permeable, liquid absorbent filter element. The housing member has a vent opening leading outwardly therefrom. A connector member is adapted to attach the housing member to the enclosure wall. The connector member is movable into the pouch and has a stem adapted to extend through the enclosure wall. The stem attaches to the housing. The stem has a passage therethrough for communication between the interior of the pouch and the interior of the housing, for flow of gases from the pouch into the housing member. The stem also serves as a conductor of fluids into the pouch for cleaning and deodorizing the pouch.
