Primary outcomePrimary: Degree of Leakage. Each Baseplate Can Have a Score From 0-24 Points Were 0 is the Best Possible Outcome (No Leakage) and 24 Points is the Worst Possible Outcome (Full Plate Leakage) — 3.8; 3.4 points on a scale
Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate leakage of a newly developed ostomy product compared to standard care in subjects with colostomies. Subjects will be asked to use each test product for 2 weeks - in total, the study period is 4 weeks and the hypothesis is to show that the newly developed ostomy product is significantly better to reduce leakage compared to standard care.
