    Abstract: A maintenance bag of an ostomy system can include fewer sensors than a diagnostic or analytic ostomy bag that is typically used for newer users. The maintenance bag can include sensors and electronics to detect fill level of the bag. The maintenance bag can also include a bag sealing mechanism that can detect drainage events and help the user to track inventory of the bags. A wafer that can be used with an ostomy bag can include leak sensors configured to detect leak of effluent via a single opening in the hydrocolloid layer that interfaces with skin of a user. The wafer can also include temperature sensors configured to detect inflammation. The wafer can further include a convex interface for better fit with certain users.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to compounds for the detection of wounds, e.g., chronic wounds or infected wounds, including compositions, substrates, kits, dressing materials, and articles, and systems containing such compounds. Further embodiments relate to methods of using these compositions, kits and systems in diagnostic assays, and in the diagnosis and/or detection of chronic or infected wounds based on enzymatic conversion of specific substrates which are contained in the compositions. Additional embodiments relate to methods of characterizing wounds based on expression of a plurality of markers and using such information to treat, manage, and follow-up patients suffering from chronic or infected wounds.

    Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present application relate to an adjustable ostomy wafer system including an ostomy wafer and an insert ring. The ostomy wafer includes an adjustable layer with an effluent opening through which effluent flows, and the adjustable layer has a body-facing side and a non-body-facing side. The insert ring is capable of providing or increasing convexity of the adjustable layer when the insert ring is pressed against the non-body-facing side of the adjustable layer.
