Abstract
Abstract An ostomy drainage receptacle (10) comprising a flexible pouch having a stoma-receiving opening (32) therein. A mounting assembly (24) surrounds the opening, the mounting assembly comprising a stiffly flexible mounting ring (26) having a flat annular rim portion (28) sealed to the opening and a convex dome portion (30) having a central stoma-receiving opening (32) therethrough. The thickness of the convex dome portion gradually increases in radial directions from the rim to the stoma-receiving opening so that the dome portion may flex upon application of the receptacle to the body for a more secure seal. The receptacle has a relatively wide upper portion (34) to provide space for a relatively large stoma and the increased width also provides a large adhesive are for application of the body.
