This invention is characterized by a drainage pouch having a bag of plastic film and a gelatinous sealing member for providing a seal between the pouch and the stoma of a patient when the pouch is in use on the patient, and novel construction whereby a single pouch and its sealing member (as an article of manufacture) serves a wide range of stoma sizes, and also whereby the film bag entirely encloses the sealing member before use and serves as the wrapper for the pouch. The invention is further characterized by a method of making the pouch wherein the sealing member is molded to shape and is in operative position within the bag and in which a wall of the film serves as a lining for the mold.
