  • Publication number: 20240148538
    Abstract: An ostomy appliance having an appliance wall of flexible sheet material forming a cavity for containing a stomal output. The wall has a stomal inlet for receiving the stomal output and a gas vent for allowing the stomal gas to migrate out of the cavity. A filter arrangement is mounted to the appliance wall and has a filter channel extending from a filter channel inlet to a filter channel outlet. The filter channel inlet is located in the cavity for receiving the stomal output from the cavity and the filter channel outlet is mounted in communication with the gas vent for allowing stomal gas to migrate out of the filter channel to the gas vent. A separation element extends along the filter channel for maintaining the filter channel in an open configuration along part of the filter channel for allowing stomal gas to pass therethough.

  • Publication number: 20210100677
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an ostomy appliance (1) comprising inner and outer walls (2, 3) of flexible sheet material. The inner wall (2) comprises a stomal inlet (20) and the outer wall (3) comprises a gas vent (27). A separation wall (4) is between the inner and outer walls (2, 3) forming separate first and second chambers (101, 102) and comprises a liquid and gas permeable separation filter (100). In use the first chamber (101) is arranged to receive stomal output directed into the ostomy appliance (1) via the stomal inlet (20). The separation filter (100) is arranged to communicate, from the stomal output in the first chamber (101), stomal liquid and stomal gas to the second chamber (102). The gas vent (27) is arranged to allow the stomal gas to migrate from the second chamber (102) to outside of the ostomy appliance (1).
