The topic at hand is about finding ways to prevent splattering when emptying an ostomy pouch. This can be a common concern for those with an ostomy, and there are several practical techniques and products that can help make the process cleaner and more comfortable. Here are some helpful tips and insights:

1. Cushion or redirect the fall:
- Place a few sheets of toilet paper on the water’s surface or on the dry front section of the bowl to soften the landing of the output.
- Aim the stream so it first hits the porcelain above the water and slides down.
- Consider kneeling or sitting far back on the seat, or using an open-front toilet seat to reduce the drop distance.

2. Flush-while-emptying methods:
- Start flushing as you empty the pouch to help pull the water down and minimize splash-back.
- Alternatively, some prefer to finish emptying, close the lid, and then flush to avoid any microscopic spray.

3. Position adjustments:
- Try sitting facing the wall (reverse straddle) or pinching the pouch outlet to slow down a high-output flow.
- If sitting is difficult due to post-surgical restrictions, standing or kneeling might be an option, though standing from full height can increase splash risk.

4. Container technique:
- Use a plastic container, like Tupperware, to empty the pouch at sink or toilet level, then pour it into the bowl. This method, often used during hospital recovery, helps control splatter.
- Rinse the pouch with warm water, clean the outlet edge with baby wipes, and replace the container as needed.

5. Pre-flush rinse inside the pouch:
- Keep a 300 ml squeeze bottle near the toilet. Add about 120 ml of warm water into the pouch before emptying to thin thick stool, then use the rest to rinse the pouch walls.

6. Disposable liners:
- ColoMajic flushable bags can be placed inside the pouch. Remove and flush the liner to keep the actual pouch clean. These are particularly useful when traveling or on long outings, though they can be expensive.

7. Output-thickening or timing tips:
- Eating a Wasa cracker and waiting until the stoma "quietens" can help achieve a drier output before changing the pouch.

8. General reminders:
- Control the opening of the pouch outlet to let the output flow slowly instead of all at once.
- Be mindful of personal hygiene and possible airborne germs; some people always close the toilet lid before flushing.
