An ostomy appliance comprising an adhesive barrier member (or base plate), said barrier member having a hole for receiving a stoma, ureter, or catheter and barrier wafer to be attached to the wearer's abdomen, back, or chest; an outer receiving member or bag releasably attached to the adhesive barrier member, said bag having a hole for receiving wastes exiting the stoma, ureter or catheter; and a disposable inner bag liner releasably attached to the adhesive barrier member wherein the disposable inner bag liner having a hole for receiving wastes exiting the stoma, ureter or catheter is attached releasably to the adhesive barrier member in a first coupling area by first coupling means and the outer receiving member is attached releasably to the adhesive barrier member by second coupling means, in which the first and second coupling areas are in the form of one or more coupling rings and the first and second coupling means are in the form of matching coupling rings and wherein the outer diameter of the first coupling means is smaller than the inner diameter of the second coupling means. Offers provide a separate, flushable inner bag enabling a safe, hygienic and discreet management of the collected waste with maximum safety against soiling parts thereof not to be substituted when changing the collecting bag.
An ostomy appliance comprising an adhesive barrier member (or base plate), said barrier member having a hole for receiving a stoma, ureter, or catheter and barrier wafer to be attached to the wearer's abdomen, back, or chest;
A disposable inner bag liner for receiving effluents or waste products of the body and for use together with an ostomy appliance comprising an adhesive, flexible skin barrier member for securing the appliance to the user's skin said barrier member having a hole for receiving a stoma, ureter, or catheter and barrier wafer to be attached to the wearer's abdomen, back, or chest and a collection bag having a hole for receiving wastes exiting the stoma, ureter or catheter wherein the disposable inner bag liner has a hole for receiving wastes exiting the stoma, ureter or catheter and is releasably attachable to the adhesive barrier member in a first coupling area by first coupling means and the collection bag by second coupling means, in which the first and second coupling areas are in the form of one or more coupling rings and the first and second coupling means are in the form of matching coupling rings, characterised in that the first coupling means is adapted for coupling to a first coupling area located on a coupling ring for coupling a receiving member to the adhesive barrier member and that the first coupling area is in the form of a groove at the inner side of the coupling ring or the lower inner edge of the coupling ring.
