Abstract

See full text

An incontinence device integrates a fillable bag which, when filled with a gas or liquid, assumes a manually graspable form suitable for use as an applicator. The fillable bag may be adjacent the waste-receiving bag, within the waste-receiving bag, or closure means may be provided enabling the waste-receiving bag itself to function temporarily as the fillable bag. In all embodiments, should the end of the waste-receiving bag include a thermally activated adhesive to improve the integrity of contact to a recipient, the fillable bag may be filled with warm water or other liquid to provide the additional function of causing or at least enhancing the activation of the adhesive. As a further alternative, chemicals may be provided to initiate one or more reactions to generate heat to activate the adhesive and/or to produce a gas to fill the form.
