Embodiment Construction

[0012] There are various embodiments described herein, in which like reference numerals are used to describe like features. Each feature or element may be used independently of other features and elements, or each feature or element may be used in various combinations together with or independently of other features or elements.

[0013] For example, stoma stabilizing devices help stabilize eg stomas, fistulas, tracheotomies, and any other passages from the outside of the body to the inside of the body, and / or connect two or more body cavities or body structures. The stoma stabilization device may be used on an opening for removal of bodily fluids, eg in the case of an ileostomy / urethrostomy. As an option, the stoma stabilization device may be used to help expel solids from the body, for example, in the case of a colostomy. In another option, the stoma stabilization device may be used to maintain an open passage maintaining ventilation and maneuvering of the device within the...

Abstract

A method and device may be used to avoid surgically re-opening a stoma or the like in an animal, including human beings. The stoma stabilitating device comprises an anchoring portion, preferably flat, that includes an opening configured to surround a stoma. The anchoring portion preferably includes an inner tension ring attached to an inner edge to define the opening and a tension ring attached to an outer edge. The anchoring portion may include additional structural rings. The device may be of a mesh construction and used to maintain, for example, a stoma, a fistula, a tracheotomy and any other pathway from outside the body to the inner part of the body. The device may be used to maintain an open pathway for air and to maneuver devices within a cavity. The device may also be used internally.

Description

technical field [0001] This application relates to medical devices and methods. Background technique [0002] In various situations in the treatment of animals, including humans, a stoma can be surgically created. For example, a stoma may be surgically created to allow urine to pass in a patient who may have had a bladder removed. Over time, this stoma may tighten or close completely, causing urine to remain in the kidney. A common solution to a closed or tight stoma is to surgically reopen the stoma. Repeated surgical procedures on the same area can lead to serious complications, scarring, and discomfort for the patient. Therefore, it would be desirable to have a method and apparatus to avoid surgical reopening of the stoma. Contents of the invention [0003] A stoma stabilizing device and method are disclosed. The stoma stabilization device includes an anchoring portion, preferably planar, and the anchoring portion includes an opening configured to surround the stom...
