A tensioning system is configured to affix a medical device, such as an ostomy pouch, wound dressing, or medical tubing, to a user's body. In some examples, the tensioning system includes one or more elongated, adjustable flexible, stretchable straps to secure the medical device to the user's abdomen, increasing the tension of a flange of the medical device against the user's skin. A first end of each flexible strap is configured to removably couple to the medical device, e.g., via hooks, adhesive, laces, hook and loop, and/or a ring. A second end of each flexible strap (or a connector base thereupon) includes a skin-safe adhesive coating configured to adhere to the user's skin.
Devices to contain and control the effluent or gastric juices of intestinal fistulas, other fistulas, stomas, and other wounds. The device includes a flexible fluid containment lineal strip defining a fluid containment wall which collapses when pressure is applied to the wound dressing, means for forming the lineal strip into any open or closed shape to fit wounds of various shape and size, means for joining the lineal strip to create closed effluent containment areas, means for creating a seal at the wound bed interface whereby effluent is contained, and means for interfacing with a pouch appliance to capture effluent and bowel contents until bowel contents can be emptied into a toilet or other waste receptacle.
