Adaptive Ostomy Faceplates for Enhanced Athletic Performance and Skin Health

This inventive concept leverages the core technology of ostomy faceplates to develop novel applications in athletic performance monitoring, prosthetic attachment optimization, high-impact activity wearables, skin health monitoring, and wound care improvement.

The original patent focused on ostomy faceplates for use in close proximity with creases, rolls, or folds. However, the limitations of this technology are its restricted applicability to specific medical contexts. This inventive concept addresses the need for adaptable ostomy faceplates that can be applied to various industries and problems, such as athletic performance monitoring, prosthetic attachment, and skin health monitoring.

The new inventive concept comprises wearable ostomy faceplates with substantially straight edges, configured for use in close proximity with skin creases, rolls, or folds. These faceplates incorporate sensors for tracking athletic metrics, detecting skin irritation or inflammation, or applying negative pressure wound therapy. The faceplates can be aligned with skin creases, rolls, or folds to optimize prosthetic attachment and reduce skin irritation. The incorporation of shock-absorbing materials enables the use of these faceplates in high-impact activities.

The new claims introduce novel applications of ostomy faceplates in athletic performance monitoring, prosthetic attachment optimization, high-impact activity wearables, skin health monitoring, and wound care improvement. The inventive step lies in the adaptation of the core technology to address specific problems in these new industries, providing a non-obvious and innovative solution.

Alternative embodiments of the inventive concept could include ostomy faceplates with curved or angled edges, or those incorporating additional sensors for monitoring other athletic or health metrics. Variations could also include the use of different materials, such as flexible or breathable materials, to enhance comfort and wearability.

The inventive concept has significant commercial potential in the athletic wearables market, the prosthetic attachment industry, and the skin health monitoring sector. The technology could be licensed to companies operating in these markets, or Sanguine Technology, LLC could develop its own products and services based on this inventive concept.
