Advancing a new era in ostomy care

Ostomy care today

For many of the 1,000,000 people living with an ileostomy, the ostomy bag causes issues such as leakage, skin problems, bothersome sounds, and odors. Despite these problems, the industry has not developed alternatives to the ostomy bag over the past 70 years.

We aim to bring radical innovation to this stagnant industry and provide ostomy bag users with an alternative. We hope our upcoming product can contribute to a more comfortable, discreet, and worry free life with an ileostomy, thereby improving quality of life.

People have described a 30% lower quality of life in relation to stoma bag care.

From the users
Kasper, 35
The stoma bag is the only available solution, but it is not a good fit for me. There is so little innovation in this area – I am really grateful that you look into this area.
Karina, 38
I am socially handicapped by the bag of stool on my stomach. If I could just get a few hours without the bag once in a while it would be fantastic.
Bettina, 47
It has stolen my femininity - I have become body shy and because of the bag I can’t wear the clothes I like.

InterPoc™

InterPoc™, is a discreet alternative to the stoma bag, designed for people with an ileostomy. InterPoc absorbs and contains the liquid intestinal waste inside the intestine, and thereby helps users regain control over emptying their bowels. InterPoc aims to remove leakage and skin irritation problems caused by intestinal waste coming into contact with the skin.

With InterPoc users get a safe and comfortable experience with increased freedom to move as they please.

InterPoc is currently under development.

Discrete construction

Our discrete design empowers users to wear the clothes they want, move as they please, and live confidently.

Safe, hygienic design

By removing the stoma bag, our hygienic design minimizes risk of skin complications and leakage.

Comfortable solution

Compared to the stoma bag, our comfortable, flexible solution enables an easy and timesaving ostomy care.

How does it work?

Insertion: Gently insert InterPoc™ into the stoma opening using a finger. It’s protected by a holster.

Absorption: The absorbent part expands inside the intestine, absorbing liquid output.

Removal: Pull the attached string to withdraw InterPoc™. An integrated sleeve keeps the output contained. Discard and replace with a new one.

Free from the stoma bag

It’s time to empower people with ileostomies with a better alternative.

Ampa regularly gathers focus groups either with professional stoma nurses or with people having an ileostomy. This is to address the need and discuss what is necessary and required from our solution.
