ABSTRACT:
An ostomy pouch having a self-contained irrigator for cleaning the pouch. The pouch comprises spaced front and back walls sealed about their peripheries to define a collecting chamber and has a closable bottom opening for draining the collected contents of the pouch for disposal. An opening is provided in one of the walls for receiving the stoma of a patient. A fluid distribution tube is located within the pouch and is provided with a multiplicity of openings so that a projecting end of the tube may be connected to a source of cleansing fluid to permit the contents of the pouch to be flushed from the pouch without removing the pouch from the patient's body.
