Click - Simple Sustainable Stoma Care

Health Application

A stoma is an artificial bowel exit for people with a non-intact digestive system. Patients have to wear a stoma bag – a glued-on pouch that collects their output – 24/7. Conventional bag systems consist of several welded multimaterials and are hard to use for people with low dexterity. »Click« is an innovative, modular system for stoma care. A screw connector, combined with a silicone cover, enables the secure use of monomaterial, disposable stoma bags. The system is split into carefully designed reusable and disposable parts, which reduces the material consumption per bag change and allows »Click« to be highly accessible and customizable.

JURY STATEMENT

This project offers an important innovation for colostomy bag users. In addition to improving aesthetics, the project presents an easy-to-fix solution, reduces the use of different materials, and has reusable parts that reduce waste. This gives greater dignity to users.

WINNER STATEMENT

Receiving the iF DESIGN STUDENT AWARD for my stoma-care project "Click" is an honor and validates my goal to improve lives through empathy and design. It inspires me to keep creating with purpose and staying true to my design philosophy.
