ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes a fluid absorbing pad for use with a typical ostomy appliance, specially suited for absorbing various body fluids external to the ostomy bag. This device absorbs perspiration, as well as acidic waste fluids as they may leak through an imperfect joint between a typical ostomy bag and adhesive wafer near the end of the useful service life of the ostomy appliance. The present invention increases the comfort of the ostomy patient in the wearing of the typical ostomy appliance, especially when used in combination with an ostomy belt. The present invention also extends the useful life of each ostomy appliance.
