AI Technical Summary
Existing stoma appliances often cause discomfort due to the discharge section contacting the wearer's thigh, leading to pain and potential soiling during excretion.
A T-shaped discharge cover for stoma appliances, secured by hook-and-loop fasteners, covers only the discharge section to prevent contact with the thigh, incorporating deodorizing and odor-eliminating materials, and may include a bag-shaped extension for additional coverage and fixation.
The cover effectively prevents the discharge section from contacting the wearer's thigh, reducing pain and odor, while maintaining effective excretion functionality.

Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0008] One form of the discharge cover for a stoma appliance disclosed is a bag-like device for collecting excrement, including feces and urine, discharged from a stoma, and is a discharge cover for a stoma appliance equipped with a tubular discharge section for discharging the accumulated material, and is T-shaped, characterized in that, in order to prevent the discharge section from coming into contact with the thigh of the person wearing the stoma appliance, the laterally extending portions of the T-shape are wrapped around the discharge section and are fixed around the discharge section by hook-and-loop fasteners at both ends, thereby covering only the discharge section. [Effects of the Invention]
[0009] The disclosed ostomy appliance outlet cover prevents the outlet of the ostomy appliance from coming into contact with the wearer's thigh and causing pain. [Brief explanation of the drawing]
[0010] [Figure 1] This figure shows an example of a stoma appliance according to this embodiment. [Figure 2] This figure shows an example of the use of the discharge cover of the stoma appliance according to this embodiment. [Figure 3] This figure shows an example of a drainage cover for a stoma appliance according to this embodiment. [Figure 4] This figure shows an example of a drainage cover for a stoma appliance according to this embodiment. [Figure 5] This figure shows an example of a drainage cover for a stoma appliance according to this embodiment. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0011] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. (Structure of the drainage cover of the stoma appliance according to this embodiment)
[0012] The structure of the drainage cover (hereinafter simply referred to as "this device") 1 of the stoma appliance according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 5. Figure 1 is a diagram showing an example of a stoma appliance 10, and Figure 2 is a diagram showing an example of the use of this device 1. Figures 3 to 5 are also diagrams showing examples of this device 1.
[0013] This device 1 is used by attaching it to a stoma appliance 10. As shown in Figure 1, the stoma appliance 10 is a device that collects excrement 14 such as feces and urine discharged from the stoma. The stoma appliance 10 is bag-shaped and has a tubular discharge section 12 for discharging the accumulated material / excrement 14.
[0014] As shown in Figure 2, the device 1 covers only the discharge portion 12 to prevent it from coming into contact with the thigh of the stoma appliance wearer 16, and is fixed around the discharge portion 12.
[0015] As shown in Figures 3 to 5, the device 1 is T-shaped, with the horizontally extending portions 2 of the T-shape wrapped around the discharge portion 12, and secured in place by hook-and-loop fasteners 4 at both ends. The device 1 also includes a portion made of deodorizing and odor-eliminating material. This prevents the generation of unpleasant odors.
[0016] As shown in Figure 3, the device 1 may also be configured such that the T-shaped portion 6 extending vertically forms a bag shape 18, and the discharge portion 12 is covered by inserting it into this bag-shaped portion 18.
[0017] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4, the device 1 may also be provided with a member (for example, rubber, string, etc.) 8 that fixes the positional relationship with the discharge section 12 on the T-shaped, vertically extending portion 6, in order to maintain the device 1 being positioned on the body side of the stoma appliance wearer 16.
[0018] Also, as shown in FIG. 5, the device 1 may be configured to cover the discharge portion 12 by folding back a T-shaped portion 6 that extends vertically (in the vertical direction) to the position of the portion 2 that extends horizontally (in the horizontal direction). Based on the above structure, the device 1 prevents the discharge portion 12 of the stoma appliance 10 from contacting the wearer 16's inner thigh and causing pain. (Method of using the discharge portion cover of the stoma appliance according to this embodiment)
[0019] The method of using the device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5. As shown in FIG. 2, during normal use, the stoma appliance wearer 16 wraps the horizontally extending portion 2 of the T-shape of the device 1 around the discharge portion 12 and fixes this state with the surface fasteners 4 at both left and right ends.
[0020] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the device 1 may fix the positional relationship with the discharge portion 12 using the rubber 8 disposed in the vertically long T-shaped portion 6, insert the discharge portion 12 into the T-shaped bag-shaped portion 18 to fix the positional relationship with the discharge portion 12, or fold back the vertically long T-shaped portion 6 to fix the state of covering the discharge portion 12.
[0021] After the stoma appliance wearer 16 removes the device 1 around the discharge portion 12, the excrement and deposits 14 accumulated in the bag-shaped stoma appliance 10 are discharged from the discharge portion 12. [[ID=!18]]By the above method of use, the device 1 prevents the discharge portion 12 of the stoma appliance 10 from contacting the wearer 16's inner thigh and causing pain.
[0022] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to such specific embodiments, and various modifications and changes are possible within the scope of the gist of the present invention described in the claims.
