Description
This Bao Health product is a two-piece ostomy system designed for individuals managing a colostomy or ileostomy. It includes a separate floating flange, which serves as a skin barrier, and a drainable 60mm pouch. This design allows the pouch to be changed without needing to remove the barrier from the skin. The system is intended to provide a secure and discreet solution for stoma care, featuring an opaque bag and a pressure-free application mechanism.
Two-Piece System: This product includes a distinct floating flange and a pouch, which permits pouch changes without removing the skin barrier. Floating Flange Design: The flexible coupling system is engineered for application with minimal pressure on the abdomen, which may enhance comfort, particularly for sensitive post-operative areas. Hydrocolloid Skin Barrier: It incorporates a Cureguard hydrocolloid adhesive that is formulated to be gentle while providing a secure seal, helping to protect the skin from stoma output. Drainable Pouch with Secure Closure: The pouch is designed to be emptied when needed and is equipped with a velcro-type "magic closure" for simple and secure fastening. Odor-Control Filter: An integrated filter is included to help release gas and neutralize odor, which assists in preventing the pouch from ballooning and aids discretion.
Q: What is a floating flange system?
A: A floating flange is part of a two-piece ostomy system. It allows you to connect the pouch to the skin barrier (flange) by applying pressure with your fingers under the flange ring, not directly on your abdomen. This can make attaching the pouch more comfortable, especially for those with post-operative tenderness.
Q: Is this pouch drainable?
A: Yes, this is a drainable pouch designed for colostomies or ileostomies. It features a closure at the bottom, such as a Velcro or clamp system, that allows you to empty the contents without removing the entire pouch.
Q: What does the 60mm size indicate?
A: The 60mm refers to the size of the flange or skin barrier opening that fits around the stoma. It is important to measure your stoma to ensure you have the correct size for a secure fit and to protect the surrounding skin.
Q: How does this system help with odor?
A: These pouches are made with an odor-barrier film that helps to contain and seal odor inside the bag. Some versions may also include an integrated filter that allows gas to be released quietly while neutralizing odor.
Q: Is it necessary to consult a professional before using this product?
A: Yes, it is highly advisable to use this product under medical supervision. A healthcare professional, such as a doctor or an ostomy care nurse, can provide guidance on proper fitting, application, and how to care for your stoma and the surrounding skin to prevent complications.
