Exploring a New Ostomy Device for Blockage Relief

This topic is about an exciting new development in the world of ostomy care. Salts, a UK-based company, is working on a prototype device designed to help manage stoma blockages. Here's how it works and some additional information:

- The device is a small unit that uses gentle suction and vibration through a specially designed stoma cap. This process takes about 5 minutes.
- After using the cap, you attach an irrigation sleeve, and stool output is expected within approximately 10 minutes.
- To manage any additional output, you wear a pouch overnight and switch back to a new stoma cap the next morning.
- The device is still in the development phase, but there is a lot of anticipation for its release due to its potential to help with blockages.

Additional information includes:

- The manufacturer of this device is Salts Healthcare, based in the United Kingdom.
- The information was found on the Ostomyland forum, within the forum threads, not as an advertisement.
- The product is still under development, and forum members are eager for updates on its progress and its effectiveness, especially concerning adhesion-related blockages.
