  • Patent number: 8475420
    Abstract: An arrangement for connecting fecal receiving bags together provides for a simple coupling arrangement, which provides fluid communication between the bags while preventing odor and fluid to leak from the coupling. Such a coupling arrangement between two receiving devices or bags is discreet and comfortable to wear as the coupling members follow the extent of the receiving devices. The coupling members are furthermore capable of extending parallel to the first and second plane of the receiving devices and thereby reduce the extent to which the coupling members bulge out. A method for connecting fecal receiving bags into a coupling arrangement employs the coupling members.

  • Publication number: 20110137273
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fecal management system for collecting fecal matter from the rectum. The system comprises a first fecal receiving bag and a second fecal receiving bag having an elongated section extending in a flow direction between a second proximal opening and a reservoir section, wherein the first fecal receiving bag and the second fecal receiving bag are connectable to each other. This provides a fecal management system that is adaptable to the user; e.g. the first fecal receiving bag can be produced as a compact and portable device, which allows for the user to move around as fecal matter will be collected in the first fecal receiving bag and thereby avoiding any embarrassing accidents; and when the user lies in bed the second fecal receiving bag can be coupled to the first fecal receiving bag, which allows for additional capacity for collecting e.g. nightly stools.
