APPARATUS FOR CONTINUOUSLY REMOVING GAS THROUGH A NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL OPENING IN THE BODY OF A PATIENT
The present invention relates to an apparatus for removing, in a manner that is as odor-free as possible, intestinal gas or other malodorous gases as part of a system for the closed, preferably continuous, removal and/or collection of stools or other strongly odor-forming excretions or secretions from the human or animal body, wherein the stool or the removed excretions or secretions are guided outside the body through a hose-like or tube-like structure which, in addition to an inflow port and an outflow port and a passage region that connects said ports and is intended for the passage of stool or other excretions or secretions, has a branch where intestinal gas or other malodorous gases are separated from the stool or the other excretions or secretions and are conducted through an adsorption and/or filter device to an outlet, wherein at least some regions of the adsorption and/or filter device are spaced apart from the passage region in order to prevent, as far as possible, close contact with the stool or other excretions or secretions flowing through the passage region.
