Description

<p> We evaluated of stoma pouches with a filter to investigate the satisfaction of filter performance(air venting and deodorization)by interviewing 55 ostomates and also by laboratory testing. Subjects(29.1%)said they were concerned with odor leakage. The reasons are related to leakage from the filter a itself, clogged filter, the length of the post-operative period and the type of stoma. Also, 81.8% of subjects answered that the filter did not have proper air venting.<br> We evaluated five different types of pouches with a deodorizing filter and venting capacity using hydrogen sulfide(H2S)and methylmercaptan as the odor model. Four out of 5 pouches(Coloplast, ConvaTec, Hollister and Dansac)showed similar deodorizing capacity. The venting capacity ranking was ConvaTec, Alcare, Hollister, Dansac and Coloplast.<br> As a result of the interview, 83.6% of ostomates were not satisfied with the existing product with a filter and required a stoma pouch that can effectively vent and deodorize odor.<br> Filters have two different requirements, deodorization and venting, although these are inverse functions.</p>
