ABSTRACT:
An ostomy appliance having a mounting member adapted to be secured to the periostomal skin surfaces of an ostomate is disclosed. The appliance includes a relatively rigid mounting plate having a centrally located aperture therethrough. The mounting plate defines a flat, annular flange portion radially extending from the aperture. An adhesive skin barrier is provided on a proximal side of the mounting member and defines a stoma-receiving opening. An adhesive web is provided on a proximal face of the flange to secure the plate to the ostomate. An ostomy pouch having a stoma inlet portal therein is adhesively secured to the distal face of the flange. The adhesive used allows repeated release and reattachment of the ostomy pouch to the mounting plate, while providing the requisite sealing and adhesion. This capability allows reuse of the pouch following cleaning, and avoidance of disposal problems, while assuring a secure seal.
