ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is an ostomy leakage represser adapted to place a diversion pouch in good sealing engagement with a stoma implanted in the user, the represser being suitably fashioned to provide pressure along a lower surface of the stoma so as to effectively eliminate any leakage that normally occurs. The represser includes a belt connected to a body portion having substantially triangular shape, an apex of a body portion provide with a circumferential lip having in a preferred form an open gap along a top area adapted to frictionally engage an annular spacer provided on most diversion pouches, the body portion suitably formed to provide pressure on an area below the stoma so that a good seal is effected between a flanged opening on the diversion pouch while simultaneously providing a pressure area below the stoma to assure complete drainage.
