Patent abstract
Waste management for people with an ostomy (ostomists), and who therefore find it necessary to wear an ostomy bag, is accomplished simply through processes, systems and ostomy tools involving versatile latent tubes. Such tools include ostomy bags, filters, connectors and conveyance vessels. The tools are particularly helpful, for example, in controlling the location and disposition of ostomy wastes (and their odors) when the ostomist performs challenging routine to unusual tasks associated with ostomy care and maintenance. The tools also help to instill confidence in the users' ability to carry on normal daily business and social activities without creating embarrassment or discomfort for themselves or others.
