The topic at hand is about dealing with persistent leaks from an ostomy appliance. This can be a frustrating issue, but there are several strategies that might help improve the situation. Here are some suggestions to consider:

1. Make sure you are using an ostomy barrier ring. Many people find that using a ring, such as an Eakin Cohesive Seal, Hollister Adapt, or Coloplast Brava Protective Ring, can significantly reduce leakage.

2. Consider the type of stoma you have, whether it's an ileostomy or a colostomy, and how long you've had it. The consistency of the output and the maturity stage of the stoma can impact how well the seal holds.

3. When cutting the opening in the wafer or baseplate, ensure it fits snugly around the stoma. If the gap is too large, it can lead to leaks.

4. Before applying the wafer and ring, make sure the skin around the stoma is completely dry. It should be "bone dry" to help the adhesive stick properly.
