Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0000128A1] The present invention relates to a faecal management device (10) designed to provide improved body fit between the flange (12) and the skin of the wearer and thereby prevent leakage. The faecal management device comprises a bag (11) having an aperture (21), and an anatomically-shaped flange (12), which surrounds the aperture (21). The flange (12) provides for adhesive attachment to the perianal area of the wearer. In particular, the flange (12) comprises a projection (29) in the rear portion of the flange (27), which provides an effective seal between the flange (12) and the skin of the wearer and prevents leakage at the coccyx. In another aspect of the present invention, the faecal management device comprising such a flange is used in combination with a disposable diaper (50).
