The present disclosure provides a coupling assembly (12) for an ostomy appliance (10) comprising a clamp arrangement (60), a first coupling and a second coupling. The clamp arrangement (60) comprises a clamp ring (61) mounted to the first and/or second coupling and a clamp locked mounted to the clamp ring (61). The clamp ring (61) comprises an inner circumference (62) adjustable between clamped and unclamped configurations. In the clamped configuration the clamp ring (61) is for maintaining the first and second couplings (20, 40) in a coupled configuration. The clamp lock (80) is adjustable into a locked configuration to lock the clamp ring (61) in the clamped configuration. The clamp lock (80) comprises a clamp actuator (81) moveable radially relative to the inner circumference (62) to unlock the clamp lock (80) from the locked configuration.

A stress urinary incontinence device is provided to limit or prevent leakage of urine in an individual. The device includes a body comprising an inner portion surrounded by an outer portion. The outer portion comprises biocompatible material and has a contact face opposing a guide face. The contact face is configured to occlude the urethral opening of the individual. A guide having an interior portion surrounded by an exterior portion projects from the guide face to aid in the application of the device onto the urethral meatus beneath the inner labia and above the vaginal opening of the individual. The device comprises materials that render it reusable.

Disclosed is a base plate for an ostomy appliance and a method for manufacturing a base plate. The base plate comprising: a top layer; a first adhesive layer; an electrode assembly comprising a plurality of electrodes, the electrode assembly having a first part and a second part, the first part comprising connection parts of the plurality of electrodes, the second part being arranged between the first adhesive layer and the top layer; and a monitor interface configured for connecting the base plate to a monitor device, the monitor interface comprising a plurality of terminals configured to form electrical connections with respective terminals of the monitor device. The top layer comprises a top layer opening configured to allow for connection between the plurality of electrodes of the electrode assembly and terminals of the monitor device.

Disclosed herein is a bladder collection system. Particularly, a bladder collection system for females is disclosed. The system is designed to be flexible and useful in upright or mobile situations. The bladder relief system includes a collection interface sized and configured for seated or standing application, a sleeve, defining a collection opening, and sidewalls defining a collection cavity, an interface tubing, extending from one end of the sleeve to another, between a collection end of the interface tubing, and an exit port for connection to an exit hose; and an adsorbing material contained within the collection cavity.

A device to facilitate urination by a male includes a vessel having a contact surface area at and adjacent a top edge of the vessel configured to be placed in contact with the penis. The contact surface area includes a thermally conductive material and has a shape configured to reduce pressure requirements for urination from a standing position as compared with urinating into a toilet from a standing position. A method of reducing urinary retention in a male includes contacting the penis of the male with a contact surface area of a device, which may be as described above, and urinating while the male is in a standing position with the penis in contact with the contact surface area, wherein the contact surface area comprises a thermally conductive material and is at an initial temperature at least 14° F. lower than a temperature of the penis.

A fluid collection system may include a fluid collection assembly configured to receive urine from a user, a container configured to sore the urine collected from the fluid collection assembly, a collection tube disposed between the fluid collection assembly and the container, and a bi-directional pump. The fluid collection system operates in a first configuration to draw urine from the fluid collection assembly into the container and a second configuration to drain the urine and clean the fluid collection system.

A fecal management applicator, a fecal management assembly, and a fecal management method are described herein. A fecal management applicator may include a handle portion, and a head portion extending from the handle portion. The head portion may include an inner head wall portion that extends axially from the handle portion and an outer head wall portion that extends radially outwardly from the inner head wall portion and curves over the inner head wall portion. The fecal management applicator may define a channel that extends continuously through the handle portion and the head portion along an entire axial length of the fecal management applicator.

The disclosed is an ostomy system configured to detect a leakage of output between abase plate and/or a sensor assembly part of the ostomy system and a surface of a subject and a method of detecting the leakage of output. The ostomy system including the base plate and/or the sensor assembly part and a monitor device, the base plate and/or the sensor assembly part comprising (i) a first adhesive layer having a distal surface, a proximal surface, and a first plurality of openings, and (ii) an electrode assembly comprising a plurality of electrodes and a masking element between the plurality of electrodes and the first adhesive layer, the masking element having a second plurality of openings aligned with the first plurality of openings of the first adhesive layer, each of the aligned first and second plurality of openings exposes a portion of one of the plurality of electrodes to define one of a plurality of sensor points, the monitor device electrically coupled to the plurality of electrodes of the base plate and/or the sensor assembly part.

An example fluid collection assembly includes a fluid impermeable barrier defining at least one exterior surface. The fluid impermeable barrier includes at least one interior surface defining a chamber and an exterior surface opposite the interior surface. The fluid impermeable barrier defines at least one opening that is configured to be positioned adjacent to a urethral opening that allows fluids (e.g., urine) to enter the chamber. The fluid impermeable barrier also includes one or more fluid flow features formed in or on the exterior surface of the fluid impermeable barrier. The fluid flow features are configure to facilitate removal of one or more fluids between the exterior surface and the skin.
