Abstract: An accessory separate from and attachable to an adhesive body side member of an ostomy appliance is disclosed. The accessory includes a proximal surface that is attachable to a distal side of the adhesive body side member and a distal surface opposite from and connected to the proximal surface. The accessory has a pocket formed between the proximal surface and the distal surface of the accessory, with an opening formed to communicate with the pocket, and manipulable material disposed in the pocket. The manipulable material is adapted to be displaced out of the pocket through the opening and is adapted to absorb stoma moisture to prevent the stoma moisture from reaching an adhesive of the adhesive body side member to effectively increase a wear time of the adhesive body side member.

Abstract: An adhesive ostomy wafer has a liner removed to expose adhesive and thus ready the adhesive ostomy wafer for adhesion to a user. The adhesive ostomy wafer includes a backing layer providing a distal surface of the adhesive ostomy wafer that is oriented to face away from skin of the user during use, an adhesive layer deposited onto the backing layer, with the adhesive layer providing a proximal surface of the adhesive ostomy wafer, an opening formed through the backing layer and the adhesive layer, with the opening adapted to fit around a stoma of the user, and a reinforcement structure located between the distal surface and the proximal surface of the adhesive ostomy wafer.

Abstract: A body side member of an ostomy appliance having a distal surface with one or more pockets holding a manipulable material and allowing the manipulable material to be shifted between a first position and a second position in the pocket in use of the body side member around a stoma of a user.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an enema device comprising a delivery container arranged for accommodating an enema and an applicator nozzle for dispersing the enema, and wherein the delivery container is arranged as a hand held pump and for remaining in an at least partly compressed configuration when the user releases the pressure on said delivery container during use. Thereby is provided a simple, inexpensive and essentially maintenance free enema device which can be used for self-administrating of an enema.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an enema device comprising a delivery container arranged for accommodating an enema and an applicator nozzle for dispersing the enema, and wherein the delivery container is arranged as a hand held pump and wherein a cross-section of said delivery container has the shape of an oval. Thereby is provided a simple, inexpensive and essentially maintenance free enema device which can be used for self-administrating of an enema.

Abstract: A convex shell for use in a base plate of an ostomy appliance includes an annular ring with a through-going hole and a plurality of grooves extending transversely across the annular ring. The grooves alter the flexibility of the annular ring as a first portion of the annular ring is folded around a folding axis toward a second portion of the annular ring.

Abstract: A method of applying an ostomy appliance includes providing an adhesive wafer having an adhesive layer, a backing layer applied to a distal surface of the adhesive layer, and a release liner applied to a proximal surface of the adhesive layer, where the release liner forms an enclosure; introducing liquid into the enclosure and increasing a temperature of the adhesive layer with the liquid; removing the release liner from the ostomy appliance; and applying the adhesive wafer to the skin of the user.

Abstract: An ostomy appliance comprising an adhesive wafer (2) for attachment to a skin surface of a user. The adhesive wafer includes a backing layer (13), an adhesive layer (12), and at least one release liner (17). The release liner comprises an enclosure (9) capable of containing a liquid or a wipe (14). The enclosure (9) can be filled with liquid before removal from the wafer, thereby providing a temperature impact on the adhesive. The wipe (14) can be impregnated with an activating agent for providing an activation of the adhesive prior to use.

Abstract: An ostomy appliance comprising a body side member (20) for attachment to a skin surface of a user. The body side member includes a backing layer (22), an adhesive layer (24), and at least one release liner (38). The release liner is at least partly embossed (40) to form interconnected cavities (42) between the release liner and the adhesive surface. When fluid is distributed into the cavities, the adhesive surface is wetted.
