" to ewe) This invention relates to surgical belts, and more particularly, to colostomy and like belts which support colostomy bags or pouches on the abdomen of a" patient, and has for its'princip'alobject to provide a colostomy belt or the like which is easily" applied and'removed and reduces to -a minimum the bluges'or protrusions that affect'the'appearance "of the garments of the wearer.
Other objects of the invent-ion are to providea'belt of thecharacter described Which'includes' an elastic Webbing extending around the person with a removable panel of the same elastic webbing' overlying the pouch to hold .same substantially flattened; to provide such a belt with a removable'p'ouch member that is easily cleaned; to'p'rovide"such'-a belt'wherein substantially all portions contacting the body are pliable =fo'r conforming to'the shape of the p'erson with maximum comfort to the wearer; to provide :s'ucha belt with removable sections for adjustment of the'size for optimum fit on the'patient; and to provide such a surgical beltthat is economical to manufactui'e, relatively comfortable to the patient, efficient in holding the pouch member: in place and adapted to be laundered in its entirety.-
" l'naccomplishing these and other objects of the presentinventin, I have provided improved details of structurejthe preferred form 'ofwhichis' illustrated the accompanying drawings, wherein: f "Fig. lis 'a'perspective view of a surgical belt constructed in accordancewith the'present invention.
*Fig. Z'is a'disass'embled perspective view of the surgical belt, removable panel and pouch member.
"Fig. 3 is a partial perspe'ctive view of the interior of the belt with the pouch member in place. L
Fig. r isan enlarged'se'cti'onal view through a portion of the belt and "pouch member.
' Referring more in detail to the drawings:
Ydesign'ateS a surgical .belt' 'vvhich includes a band 2 made from elastic Webbing of suitable width, for example, approximately 8 inchesjiand provided on each of its end edges 3 and '4' with portions 5 and 6 ofa separable fastener 7 such as a'slide fastener whereby sa-id'end edges may be connected together to extendabout the body of a patient or wearer." While the 12.311512 is ofelastic Webbii 's r bl Of le e ibn; or m imum s f r f the w r .1 n t a 1 P 5 lI imp ted on the ody the-band shouldbe someWhat un-iforrn. Therefore, insertsor'sections of elastic webbing are arranged with portions "9 and are 's'eparables'lide fastener suitably secured on each e'nd "12 and '13 respectively adapted to ble' ga ti Wi hths a biis POW 9 5 nd fi e pec iv y to adjust the belt to a suitable size to provide theiproper fit around persons of diiferent size. Different length or a plurality of sections 8 may be used to give desired variation in the size of the band. It is preferable that the slide fasteners extend from the lower edges 14 of the band 2 and section 8 upwardly therefrom and terminate as at 15 with the portion of the ends of the band betweenthe end 1523f the'slide fastener and the upper edge; 15 of the .b 'ifi b ig i i tlWil-h has aw 1 the a Batented A pr 16, 1957 of the sections Salso-being provided with corresponding mating hooks and eyesforfcoiinection thereto. Phe hook band 2 and-sections '8. The edges'1'4 and 16 of the band are preferably covered by a suitable elastic binding '19 secured thereto as by stitching 20 to prevent the band from folding or curling up on the wearer. Loops of fabric 21 are preferably'secured in spaced relation to the band adjacen't the lower edge '14 for attachment of garters or other strapsY-ifdesired. Also, the lower edge 14 and upper edge 16 of the band 2 and sections 8 may be of equal length or one shorter-than the other to fit the body of the wearer; however, usually the upper edge 16 is slightly shorter as it should extend substantiallyabout the waist of. the wearer. l a
In the illustrated structure, the ends? and 4are adapted to be positioned substantially at the left side of the wearer and the front pout-ion 22- is provided with an opening 23 and. rings 24 and 25 of fabric stifiening material such as crinoline are arranged on opposite sides of. the band covering the margins of the opening. Coverings 26' and 27 are provided-over the rings 24 and'25 respectively with the edges of said covering turned-under the stiffening and then the covering and stiffening margins sewn or suitably secured to the elastic webbing as by stitching 28, the inner edges 29- of the rings substantially registering with the inner edges of the opening 23. The coverings 2'6 and 27 are preferably of a relatively thin. sheet of synthetic res-in such as polyethylene or like washable impervious material. The stiifening rings/25 and covering27 onthe inner surface of the elastic webbing provide a slight thickness that slightly increases the pressure applied to the body in the area surrounding the opening23 and also eliminate stretching or distortion of the margins of i the opening23;
secured to the belt. The sheet material 43 is preferably of a synthetic resin such as polyethylene or like impervious washable material that is flexible yet with slightly more thickness than the bag member to provide a tendency for the sheet 43 to lie flat against the body of the wearer; The sheet material 43 also adheres slightly to the body to form a seal therewith.
In using a colostomy belt constructed as described,
one of the slide fasteners 7 and corresponding hooks 17 and eyes 18 are disengaged and the belt extended around the body of the wearer. Then a suitable section 8 is selected whereby the circumference of the belt 2 and section 8 is slightly smaller than the body of the patient so as to provide the desired pressure .to be applied by the belt. Then the panel 33 is removed and the pouch member 38 applied to the belt. .Then the belt is placed around the body of the wearer and the slide fastener 7 engaged and secured. The hooks and eyes 17 and 18 are then engaged to secure the belt to the patient with the opening 23 and the pouch member 38 therein positioned over the abdominal opening of the patient. The panel 33 is then placed over the pouch member and secured to the belt. While there is suflic-ient elasticity of the belt for the pouch member to be removed without removing the belt, it is usually desirable in removing the pouch member 38 to disconnect one of the slide fasteners and the, hooks and eyes to release the belt from the patient 'to facilitate removal of the pouch member for emptying and cleaning. In normal use, the panel 33 is kept in place during wearing, for example, when the patient is up and around during the daytime, and at night, for convenience and comfort of the patient, the panel 33 is completely removed. In either case, the elasticity of the belt and the slight thickness of the stiffening 25 and cover 27 presses the portion of the sheet 43 surrounding the opening tightly against the abdomen of the patient, but the stiffening material is such that it still conforms to the shape of the abdomen so that the pressure does not cause any discomfort, but the pressure is sufiicient to substantially form a seal around the opening into the pouch. 7
