Abstract: An ostomy appliance belt for supporting and concealing an ostomy pouch as well as the stoma area of the user's abdomen. The belt is made from a waterproof lightweight elastic material and completely encircles the user's waist without interfering with the attachment of the ostomy appliance to the abdomen. A flexible pocket retainer extends between the ends of the belt to support and contain the ostomy pouch in a retainer cup housed therein. The retainer cup is affixed to the user's body by a sealing barrier attached to the outer surface of the cup. The pocket retainer includes a one-way release valve that helps secure the pocket retainer to the user's body. A storage compartment is housed on the exterior side of the pocket retainer for storing personal items therein.
