| 20080243098 | Access Port For a Medical Appliance and Method - A medical access port ( | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080312616 | ABSORBENT UNDER-BREAST PAD - A moisture absorbent under-breast pad provides absorption of moisture between the breast and rib cage. The pad is made from 100 percent cotton cloth and is held in place by the weight of the breasts without adhesives or straps. The pad is comfortable to wear and provides relief from yeast infections, rashes, perspiration odor, and itching. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20100022976 | SEAL FOR A RECTAL OR OSTOMY APPLIANCE - A rectal appliance with a tubular member defining a communication passage for body waste, and first and second inflatable chamber portions carried on the tubular member for forming internal and external seals with respect to the anus. One or both of the inflatable chamber portions have a partly flared shape. The second inflatable chamber portion has a low external profile, and a concave sealing surface. The inflatable chamber portions are defined at least partly by a common flexible membrane that is constrained near a middle region to define a narrow waist between the two inflatable chamber portions. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100168693 | FAECAL MANAGEMENT DEVICE - A faecal management device suitable for attachment directly to the perianal skin between the buttocks of the wearer. The device utilises an optimised adhesive wafer in order to securely attach the device to the skin of the wearer so that the device is maintained in position for the entire period of wear, including circumstances or periods of wear during which the wearer is active, i.e. not bedridden. In addition the faecal management device of the present invention has the ability for easy application of the device. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20110137273 | Fecal management system - 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. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110319844 | Fluid Containment Pouch - A fluid containment pouch is provided that includes a first layer of material having a first thermal characteristic and a second layer of material having a second thermal characteristic. The first layer of material is thermally compatible with a patient covering upon which it is to be thermally bonded. Thermal bonds between the fluid containment pouch and the patient covering form fluid containment channels that retain expelled body fluids during a patient's operation to help maintain a sterile operating environment. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20130158489 | INTELLIGENT NURSING MACHINE - This invention relates to the field of nursing machines and discloses an intelligent nursing machine including a feces collector, a connection pipe connected with the feces collector, and a sewage collector connected with the connection pipe. The feces collector includes a wearing portion and a silica gel leather cover disposed at the wearing portion. The silica gel leather cover includes at least two corrugated layers and a skin contact layer disposed at outer sides of the corrugated layers. The two adjacent corrugated layers are mutually overlaid. A feces collecting opening of the nursing machine can tightly contact the private part of the human body and does not leak the patient's feces from the lateral or rear side, greatly reducing cleaning burden on the medical personnel. The operation is very simple and convenient, suitable for the old people and patients in the hospital. The intelligent nursing machine has high economically practicality. | 06-20-2013 |
| 20140031775 | UNDERGARMENT FOR POST-SURGICAL MASTECTOMY PATIENTS - An undergarment is provided in the form of a brassiere which includes comfort and stylistic features to assist in post-surgical recovery. In other implementations, a camisole is provided which includes comfort and stylistic features to assist in post-surgical recovery. In one application, the post-surgical undergarment is configured to assist in the recovery of mastectomy patients. | 01-30-2014 |
| 20140163499 | DISIMPACTION BAG - A disimpaction bag includes a bag-shaped main body, an adhesive portion, and at least one finger insertion portion. The at least one finger insertion portion protrudes from either of a lateral surface and a bottom surface of the main body toward inside of the main body, and has a closed tip. The at least one finger insertion portion is configured so as to accommodate at least one finger inserted therein from outside of the main body, and to insert at least one portion thereof into an anus through the opening of the main body. | 06-12-2014 |
| 20140276502 | Retention Cuff for Bowel Management System - A retention cuff for a fecal collection device has an inflatable body with a proximal end, a proximal end flow opening, a free end, and a free end flow opening. An interior volume within the body is fillable with a medium to inflate the cuff. An axial flow path extends along an axis of and through the body and is in flow communication with the proximal and free end openings. A plurality of lateral flow pathways in the body are in flow communication with the axial flow path. The plurality of lateral flow pathways provides fluid flow in a direction different from the axial flow path. | 09-18-2014 |
| 20160106570 | Fecal Matter Containment Device - A single use device for capturing fecal matter excreted from the anus of a user. The device includes a flexible fecal matter container having a closed end and an opening that is in fluid communication with a volume enclosed by the flexible container. An adhesive is disposed about the opening of the flexible container and has a first side that is secured to the flexible container. A second side of the adhesive is constructed to be removably applied to the epidermis of the user proximate an anal opening of the user. The adhesive is shaped to cooperate with the epidermis to circumscribe the anus in a sealed manner without interfering or overlapping anatomy associated with urinary function or medical devices, such as a catheter, associated therewith. | 04-21-2016 |
