ABSTRACT:
An ostomy appliance belt for positively supporting and consealing an ostomy pouch as well as the stoma area of the user's abdomen. The belt is made from an elastic material and completely encircles the user's waist without interfering with the attachment of the ostomy appliance to the abdomen. The belt functions independently but cooperates with a self sealing ostomy appliance so as to permit removal and cleaning of the appliance without removal of the belt. A pocket forming elastic panel extends between the ends of the belt and covers the stoma area in the closed position. When the panel is opened, the ostomy pouch may be removed without removal of the belt.
