Patent number: 8708987Abstract: A body fitment for an ostomy appliance comprises an adhesive wafer including a moldable region shapable by the user. A removable release liner covering an external adhesive surface of the wafer is configured to permit molding of the moldable region by manually manipulating the adhesive through the release liner, and/or with removable segments. In an alternative form, an interior release liner is removable through the entrance aperture of the wafer, by pulling on a grip portion that protrudes through the entrance aperture. In an alternative form, an ostomy pouch includes a finger pocket in a front pouch wall, for permitting insertion of a finger tip for molding the moldable region of an adhesive wafer that is secured around a stomal aperture in a rear pouch wall.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2009Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Convatec Technologies Inc.Inventors: Kathryn Cramer, George Fattman, Tinh Nguyen-DeMary
