Abstract: An ostomy barrier includes an inlet opening for receiving a stoma and a barrier adhesive including a plurality of thicker portions and a plurality of thinner portions. The plurality of thinner portions are configured and arranged to improve the flexibility of the ostomy barrier.

Abstract: An ostomy barrier includes an adhesive layer having a body-facing side, a distal side opposite to the body-facing side, and an opening, a seal substantially aligned with the opening, the seal having an aperture configured to receive a stoma therein, and a flexible connector extending between the seal and the adhesive layer to connect the seal to the adhesive layer. The flexible connector formed from a flexible material to allow relative movement between the seal and the adhesive layer.

Abstract: A package for an ostomy barrier ring is provided. The package includes a first shell, a second shell and a hinge connecting the first and second shells. The first shell includes a first stacking wall having a first interior side and a first exterior side, a first nesting structure formed on the first stacking wall, and a first sidewall extending from and about the first stacking wall. The second shell includes a second stacking wall having a second interior side and a second exterior side, a second nesting structure formed on the second stacking wall, and a second sidewall extending from and about the second stacking wall. The hinge allows the first shell and second shell to rotate relative to one another. A plurality of packages may be stacked with the first nesting structure of one package received in the second nesting structure of an adjacent package.

Abstract: A convex barrier ring, that includes a generally oval shaped body and tapered peripheral end portions, is provided. In use, the convex barrier ring is sealed against peristomal skin surfaces such that the tapered peripheral end portions are aligned with folds or creases in the skin surfaces to reduce leakage of stomal effluent. The convex barrier can also have an oval stoma-receiving aperture to provide an improved fit for oval or loop stomas.
