Ostomy base plate having a monitor interface provided with a lock to hold a data monitor in mechanical and electrical connection with electrodes of the base plate

Abstract

An ostomy base plate includes an adhesive layer, an electrode assembly, and a monitor interface. The adhesive layer is located on a proximal side of the ostomy base plate. The electrode assembly is disposed on a distal side of the adhesive layer and includes a plurality of electrodes having connection parts and sensing parts. The monitor interface is connected to the ostomy base plate, with the monitor interface including a coupling part adapted to mechanically connect a data monitor to the ostomy base plate and electrically connect the data monitor to the plurality of electrodes of the electrode assembly. A lock is provided on the monitor interface to hold the data monitor in mechanical connection to the monitor interface to ensure electrical connection between the data monitor and the plurality of electrodes of the electrode assembly.
