Stomasense: New leak detection for ileostomy pouches
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device called Stomasense that aims to detect and manage leaks from an ileostomy pouch earlier. It's for people who have had their ileostomy for at least 18 months and experience frequent leaks (more than once a week).

This study looks at how plant chemicals (called polyphenols) are absorbed in people with an ileostomy. It aims to understand digestion and could help guide future nutrition advice for ileostomy patients.
This study tests a new device called TIES® that is implanted under the skin to help people with a permanent ileostomy or colostomy. The goal is to see if it is safe and works well during stoma revision surgery.
This trial tests whether a device called COLO-BT can be a safer, effective alternative to an ileostomy (a temporary or longer-term opening from the intestine to the skin). It’s for certain adults having a bowel connection low in the pelvis, where leak risk matters.
This study looks at the skin around and away from the stoma to understand its natural characteristics. You may help if you have a colostomy, ileostomy, or urostomy and have healthy skin around your stoma.
This study asks people with ileostomy, colostomy, or urostomy to answer online questions about their daily life and experiences with ostomy care. The goal is to better understand what matters most to patients so that products and support can be improved.
This study tests whether a simple daily stimulation technique applied before ileostomy reversal surgery can improve your bowel health and reduce complications. Researchers will compare your bowel bacteria and tissue health before and after the procedure.
