Bodily waste collection using periodic pressure

A bodily waste collection device, comprising:

• an annular body defining an opening therein, the annular body being configured to be positioned over the anus or the stoma of the wearer to position the opening around the anus or the stoma;
• a fluid impermeable barrier extending from or near an outer periphery of the annular body, the fluid impermeable body including an upper portion and a lower portion, the fluid impermeable barrier including an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface at least partially defining a chamber;
• at least one input port located in the upper portion of the fluid impermeable barrier;
• and
• at least one output port located in the lower portion of the fluid impermeable barrier.

• a fluid impermeable barrier extending from the annular body, the fluid impermeable body including an upper portion and a lower portion, the fluid impermeable barrier including an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface at least partially defining a chamber;
• a filter bag disposed within the chamber and positioned to receive waste via the opening, the filter bag directly affixed to the annular body or the fluid impermeable barrier;
• at least one input port located in the upper portion of the fluid impermeable barrier;
• and
• at least one output port located in the lower portion of the fluid impermeable barrier.

• a fluid impermeable barrier extending from or near an outer periphery of the annular body, the fluid impermeable body including an upper portion and a lower portion, upper port of the fluid impermeable barrier exhibits a generally cylindrical shape and the lower portion exhibits a maximum outer dimension that is less than a maximum outer dimension of the upper portion, the fluid impermeable barrier including an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface at least partially defining a chamber;
• a filter bag disposed within the chamber and positioned to receive waste via the opening, the filter bag directly affixed to the annular body or the fluid impermeable barrier, the filter bag constructed of a mesh material having a sieve size of about 5 μm to about 1500 μm;
• at least one input port located in the upper portion of the fluid impermeable barrier;
• and
• at least one output port located in the lower portion of the fluid impermeable barrier.
