Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pouch for storing excrement excreted from a colostomy.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional ostomy pouch, a part of the upper end of the ostomy pouch is opened using a cutting tool such as scissors, and an exhaust tube having a trumpet-like connecting portion is formed in the hole. The gas that has adhered and accumulated inside was exhausted (JP-A-7-246213).

However, a cutting tool such as scissors is required to make a hole in the colostomy pouch, and the exhaust tube cannot be connected to the colostomy pouch in a place where there is no cutting tool. There is also conventionally known a method in which an opening is provided in a pouch and a deodorant such as activated carbon is attached to the opening to remove an odor.

[0004]

However, when the body is violently moved or the body is laid down, the excrement accumulated in the pouch may be clogged by contact with the deodorant, or may be degassed. When the pouch is pushed by hand, the moisture in the excrement accumulated in the pouch flows backward through the exhaust tube attached to the pouch, causing clogging, and there is a problem that degassing is not performed well.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and has as its object the object of the present invention when excrement in a pouch leaks out even when the body is moved or when a deodorant is used. An object of the present invention is to provide a pouch for a colostomy, which does not cause clogging or the like and can perform good gas release.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a bag-shaped colostomy pouch which is attached to a colostomy and stores excretions, comprising: an opening connected to the colostomy; A mounting hole of an exhaust device for exhausting gas accumulated in the inside is provided, and a nonwoven fabric is arranged inside the pouch to partition into a space including the opening and a space including the mounting hole, and the nonwoven fabric is used. The mounting hole is covered from the inside of the pouch by a liquid-impermeable and air-permeable member in the space including the partitioned mounting hole.

Further, in the above structure, a part of the lower end of the nonwoven fabric disposed inside the pouch forms an opening without being fused with the sheet of the pouch body.
Further, in the above configuration, a deodorant is disposed near the mounting hole of the exhaust device.

In this configuration, the excrement flowing into the pouch from the artificial anus is transferred from the space including the opening connected to the artificial anus to the space including the mounting hole of the exhaust device by the nonwoven fabric disposed inside the pouch. Is stopped. On the other hand, the generated gas flows from the space including the opening connected to the colostomy to the space including the mounting hole of the exhaust device and is exhausted to pass through the nonwoven fabric.

At this time, if a deodorant is arranged near the mounting hole of the exhaust device, the gas in the pouch is deodorized and released to the outside, but the excrement in the pouch is directly deodorized. Since it does not come into contact with the agent, it prevents clogging of the deodorant and deterioration of the deodorizing effect. In addition, the water contained in the excrement may ooze out of the nonwoven fabric and accumulate in the space including the mounting hole of the exhaust device. And the passage of gas is not hindered, but the inflow of moisture is completely prevented. Therefore, since the water does not directly touch the deodorant and does not flow back to the exhaust device side,
Degassing of the pouch can be performed well. In addition, if an opening is formed in such a manner that a part of the lower end of the nonwoven fabric does not fuse with the sheet of the pouch main body, the water collected in the space including the mounting hole of the exhaust device is connected to the colostomy. To the space containing.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of a pouch for a colostomy of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a rear view thereof, and FIG. 3 is a sectional side view thereof. Pouch 1 for colostomy according to the present invention
Is a bag-shaped colostomy pouch that is attached to the colostomy to store excretions. A mounting hole 9 for the device is provided. Further, a nonwoven fabric 6 is disposed inside the pouch 1, and the inside of the pouch 1 is formed by the nonwoven fabric 6 into a space A including the opening 8 (hereinafter, referred to as a space A).
It is divided into a “space A” and a space B (hereinafter simply referred to as a “space B”) including the mounting hole 9 of the exhaust device.

Here, the periphery of the nonwoven fabric 6 is heat-sealed to the pouch sheet, but as shown in FIG. 1, a part of the lower end does not fuse with the pouch sheet to form the opening 13. Then, the water accumulated in the space B can be returned to the space A side.

The main body of the pouch 1 is formed in a bag shape by laminating a resin sheet or the like. The opening 8 and the mounting hole 9 are provided in the pouch 1. The peripheral joints are all heat-sealed. It has a structure. As the resin sheet, for example, a polyethylene sheet is used. In the present embodiment, the top sheet 2 and the back sheet 3 are polyethylene sheets, and the back sheet 3 is used.
On top of this, a nonwoven fabric 4 is further polymerized. In addition, pouch 1
The lower end is open so that the inside can be cleaned and used repeatedly.

A fitting 10 for the exhaust device is attached to the attachment hole 9 of the exhaust device. The attachment 10 has a substantially tubular shape, and has one end protruding outside the pouch 1 and the other end protruding inside the pouch 1. The attachment 10 is sandwiched and fixed between the top sheet 2 and the back sheet 3 of the pouch 1. As an exhaust device, an exhaust tube 11 with a stopper can be inserted and attached to one end of a fixture 10 projecting outward from the pouch 1.

Also, a fitting 10 projecting into the inside of the pouch 1
A deodorant 12 is arranged around the other end of the pouch, and the mounting hole 9 is covered from the inside of the pouch by a liquid-impermeable and air-permeable member 7 in the space B partitioned by the nonwoven fabric 6. . More specifically, in the space B, the other end of the fixture 10 protruding into the pouch 1 and the deodorant 12 disposed therearound are covered by the liquid-impermeable and gas-permeable member 7. The periphery of the liquid-impermeable and gas-permeable member 7 is heat-sealed to the pouch sheet.

As the liquid-impermeable and air-permeable member 7, for example, Gore-Tex (registered trademark) can be used. In addition, as the member 7, for example, a member having a two-layer structure in which a polytetrafluoroethylene porous film or the like is laminated on a polyolefin or polyester base material can be used.

A skin protection sheet 5 is bonded around the opening 8 by heat fusion. In addition, the size of the opening 8 can be adjusted by cutting it out according to the size of the diameter of the colostomy.

In the above configuration, excrement flows into the space A of the pouch 1 from the artificial anus via the opening 8 and accumulates. At this time, even if the body is moved vigorously or the body is laid down, the nonwoven fabric 6 arranged inside the pouch 1
Space A and space B are separated by
The excrement accumulated inside does not flow into the space B, and the inconvenience that the excrement and the like accidentally leak from the exhaust side does not occur.

On the other hand, the generated gas flows from the space A to the space B in order to freely pass through the nonwoven fabric 6, and further passes through the liquid-impermeable and gas-permeable member 7 freely. Air is exhausted through the exhaust tube 11. At this time, as described above, the deodorant 1
When the pouch 2 is attached, the gas in the pouch 1 is deodorized and released to the outside. In this embodiment, since the excrement in the pouch 1 does not directly touch the deodorant in the space B,
Inconveniences such as clogging of the deodorant and deterioration of the deodorizing effect do not occur, and as a result, the pouch is well ventilated.

Further, the water contained in the excrement may seep out of the nonwoven fabric 6 and accumulate in the space B. However, the deodorant around the base of the fixture 10 for connecting the exhaust tube 11 and its surroundings. Numeral 12 is covered from the inside of the pouch by the liquid-impermeable and gas-permeable member 7, so that the passage of gas is not hindered, but the inflow of moisture is completely prevented. Therefore, since the water does not directly touch the deodorant 12 and does not flow backward to the exhaust tube 11 side, the pouch is always well ventilated.

[0020]

As described above in detail, according to the pouch for colostomy of the present invention, the interior of the pouch is formed by the nonwoven fabric disposed inside the pouch and the space including the opening connected to the colostomy and the exhaust device. Because it is partitioned into a space including the mounting hole, even if the user moves the body vigorously or lays down, the excrement flowing into the pouch from the colostomy is connected to the colostomy. It does not flow from the space including the opening to the space including the mounting hole of the exhaust device,
There is no inconvenience such that excrement or the like accidentally leaks from the mounting hole of the exhaust device.

On the other hand, since the generated gas can freely pass through the nonwoven fabric, it can be exhausted by the exhaust device through the mounting hole of the exhaust device. If a deodorant is attached to the mounting hole, the gas in the pouch is deodorized and released to the outside. However, in the case of the pouch of the present invention, excrement accumulated in the pouch is directly deodorized. Since there is no contact with the agent, inconveniences such as clogging of the deodorant and deterioration of the deodorizing effect do not occur, and the pouch is well ventilated.

Further, with respect to the moisture contained in the excrement, the passage of gas is not hindered by the liquid-impermeable and air-permeable member, but the inflow of moisture is completely prevented. Since the deodorant is not touched and does not flow backward to the exhaust device side, the pouch is always vented well.

Further, if a part of the lower end of the nonwoven fabric whose periphery is heat-sealed to the pouch sheet is formed without being fused to the pouch sheet, an opening is formed in the space including the mounting hole of the exhaust device. It is also possible to return the water that has flowed to the space including the opening connected to the colostomy. The pouch of the present invention has excellent effects with a simple configuration, and also has effects of being easy to manufacture and reducing costs.
