For those individuals needing to wear ostomy belts or ostomy wraps, the Stealth Belt is a fashionable and sleek belt designed to provide a comfortable, supportive and protective fit. Tucked close to the body, Stealth ostomy belts are virtually unnoticeable.

For those individuals who have had a colostomy, urostomy, ileostomy or other similar procedures, ostomy belts provide support for the weight of medical appliances that are attached to the stoma. These ostomy wraps are carefully designed to wrap around the abdomen and securely attach to the ostomy bag.

Ostomy belts and ostomy wraps are considered “accessories” for ostomy appliances. Meaning they may or may not be a good option for your specific needs and are not necessarily a mandatory item to purchase. That said, ostomy belts and wraps may provide additional support, comfort and discretion that many individuals find beneficial.

Ostomy wraps and belts serve a number of purposes including:

• Ensuring proper adhesion of your pouching system
• Accentuating or enhancing a convex system
• Providing a sense of security
• Providing additional support
• Improving comfort
• Enhancing discretion

If you are concerned about any of the above factors or are experiencing any of the following you may want to consider researching ostomy belts and ostomy wraps further:

• Consistent or regular leakage (especially at creases or edges)
• Premature raising or lifting of the borders of your flange
• Your system tends to shift or move excessively during daily activities

For many individuals, ostomy wraps and/or ostomy belts provide a sense of security and reduces the self-consciousness associated with their setup.  In other cases, those that participate in sports or who enjoy swimming or baths may need the increased support these accessories can provide.

Additionally, these belts can be worn throughout the night for reduced risk of leakage when tossing and turning when sleeping. 

There are a number of benefits to consider when looking at ostomy belts and ostomy wraps.
