A drainable urine pouch includes a discharge portion that is foldable between a discharge position and a closed position. A security flap is sealed to both walls of the pouch by a through weld, to define a baffle near the discharge portion. The discharge portion includes a constriction, and a stepped profile with multiple step stages. The discharge portion has one or more bias members. A drainage adapter is releasably coupled to the discharge portion. The drainage adapter has a plug with a shoulder for abutting the constriction in the discharge portion, to locate the adapter correctly for obtaining a liquid-tight seal.

An ostomy body fitment for attaching an ostomy pouch to a person's body comprises a shapeable adhesive pad, and a shape defining member. In a first annular fixed shape zone, the shapeable pad is supported and shaped by the shape defining member. In a second central reshapeable zone, a portion of the adhesive pad is unsupported by the shape defining member, and can be molded to fit an individual's stoma. A flexible flange for removable adhesive attachment to an ostomy pouch has an attachment zone outside the periphery of the shape defining member, to reduce direct application of external forces.

An improved wound dressing is provided according to the present invention. In a prefenred embodiment, the dressing comprises an absorbent layer including one or more absorbent and/or superabsorbent materials; a porous, non-stick layer or film larger in size than said absorbent layer and overlying, a wound-facing surface of the absorbent layer such that a portion of the non-stick layer extends beyond the length and width of the absorbent layer; a protective cover layer, which protective cover layer is larger in size than the absorbent layer but generally no greater in size than the non-stick layer; and a cohesive layer of an adhesive material generally being substantially the size and shape of the protective cover layer which is adhered to its non-wound-facing surface and having the absorbent layer and the extending portion of the non-stick layer adhered to its wound facing surface, whereby a substantially non-adherent dressing is provided.
