Abstract

Disclosed is abase plate 1 for an ostomy collection device, comprising a cover layer 2 whereon an adhesive layer 3 is at least partly disposed. Immediately surrounding a through-going hole 6 , the base plate has an inner area wherein the cover layer extends beyond the adhesive layer in a radial direction toward the through-going hole, thereby providing an overlap 7 protecting the adhesive material from contact with stomal output.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A base plate for an ostomy appliance, the base plate comprising:
an adhesive layer having a skin-facing side, configured to be attached to a skin surface of the user around a stoma, and an opposite backing side, the adhesive layer comprising a first adhesive and a second adhesive surrounding the first adhesive, the first adhesive includes swelling properties and the second adhesive is different from the first adhesive;
a stoma-receiving hole extending through the first adhesive from the skin facing side to the backing side; and
a backing layer secured to the backing side of the adhesive layer, with an aperture formed in the backing layer to have an aperture diameter that is smaller than a diameter of the stoma-receiving hole before the base plate is applied to a user, the aperture is located over the stoma-receiving hole of the adhesive layer to provide the base plate with a sealing flange that overlaps some but not all of the stoma-receiving hole, the sealing flange forming a circular, planar member substantially parallel to the skin facing side of the adhesive surface,
wherein an inner periphery of the sealing flange is configured, when the skin-facing side of the adhesive layer is attached to the skin surface of the user around the stoma, to be distally deflected by peristomal skin projecting above the skin surface around the stoma of the user, such that a seal is created around the stoma by the attached adhesive layer and the deflected inner periphery of the sealing flange.

2. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein a radial extent of the first adhesive is between 4 and 10 mm.

3. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the backing layer is an open-celled foam.

4. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the backing layer is a visco-elastic polyurethane foam.

5. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing flange extends between 7 and 15 mm beyond the first adhesive.

6. The base plate according to claim 2 , wherein the radial extent of the first adhesive is 5 mm.

7. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the first adhesive is located at and around the stoma receiving hole.

8. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein sealing flange prevents the first adhesive from expanding beyond an edge of the backing layer.

9. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing flange is not covered by adhesive.

10. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing flange separates the first adhesive from a stoma and prevents the first adhesive from contracting stoma effluent.

11. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the first adhesive is moisture permeable.

12. The base plate according to claim 1 , wherein the first adhesive is selected from the group consisting of polypropyleneoxide, polyurethane, silicone, polyacrylate, ethylene vinyl acetate, and mixtures of polypropyleneoxide, polyurethane, silicone, polyacrylate, ethylene vinyl acetate.

13. The base plate according to claim 1 , further including a coupling ring to which an ostomy bag may be coupled, the coupling ring disposed radially outward from the sealing flange and the stoma-receiving hole.
