ABSTRACT:
An ostomy appliance including a faceplate having an inner surface, an opposite outer surface, and an opening engaging said inner surface. The faceplate is adapted to be placed so that its inner surface is generally against the body of the ostomate and the opening registers with the stoma of the user. The faceplate has outflow channels communicating with the opening and engaging the outer surface for allowing the outflow of stoma waste products from the stoma through the faceplate. A groove sealing arrangement attaches the receptacle to the faceplate and the stoma waste products flow through the outflow channels into the receptacle. A stoma protector shield having an inner shield surface adapted to face the user and an outer shield surface is positionable so that the inner shield surface is over the opening and spaced a small distance from the inner surface away from the user whereby a chamber is defined adjacent the stoma. The outflow channels communicate with the chamber. The protector shield which is positioned over the stoma protects the stoma when an object impacts the faceplate at a location. The shield can be removed from the faceplate so that irrigation and cleansing can be done through the faceplate while it is attached to the body. A vacuum can be created in the chambers of the suction faceplate embodiment causing it to adhere to the body.
