An intestinal stoma shield or support belt is a non-sterile device designed to be worn over a surgically created opening in the abdomen. These products protect the stoma from external physical contact, such as friction or accidental impact, while helping to prevent herniation and secure the ostomy appliance to the skin.
These devices are intended for single-use applications and are typically managed by the patient as part of their daily stoma care routine. They are designed to be worn either directly over the stomal opening or attached to the existing base plate or wafer system.
