  • Colostomy bag with gas release valve and method for releasing gas collected in the colostomy bag
    Publication number: 20030236509
    Abstract: A colostomy bag with a release valve and a method for releasing gas from the colostomy bag is provided. The release valve is attached to a colostomy bag for release of gas in the colostomy bag. The gas may be released manually by a person with the use of one hand. Accordingly, a person who is disabled or otherwise incapable of using two hands, may release gas from the colostomy bag and prolong the use of a single bag by extending the time it may take for the bag to fill. In addition, a method for releasing gas collected in a colostomy bag is provided such that the frequency of replacing and/or intermittently cleaning the colostomy bag is reduced.
