Description

The Coloplast Alterna Deep Convexity Base Plate is a specialized component designed for individuals with unique ostomy care needs. Its deep convex shape is engineered to provide moderate to high pressure on the peristomal skin, promoting stoma protrusion and significantly reducing the risk of leakage. This makes it particularly suitable for those with retracted stomas or challenging skin contours such as deep folds and scars.

Key Features

• Secure Attachment: The base plate features a mechanical coupling system with an audible "click" locking mechanism, ensuring a secure connection with the ostomy pouch. This system allows for 360° rotation, enabling users to position the pouch conveniently before locking it in place.

• Spiral Adhesive: Equipped with a spiral adhesive, the base plate offers strong adherence, excellent moisture absorption, and enhanced skin protection. This adhesive design is available in both pre-cut and cut-to-fit options, accommodating a wide range of stoma sizes for a personalized fit.

• Belt Tabs: Integrated belt tabs provide additional security, giving users peace of mind in their daily activities.

Compatibility

The base plate is compatible with a variety of pouch types, including drainable, closed, and urostomy pouches. These pouches are available in both transparent and opaque options, allowing for discretion and versatility.

Available Sizes

• Coupling Diameters: 40mm, 50mm, 60mm
• Pre-cut Hole Sizes: 15mm, 18mm, 21mm, 25mm, 28mm, 31mm, 35mm, 38mm, 41mm
• Cut-to-fit Options: 15-23mm, 15-33mm, 15-43mm

Material and Design

Constructed with high-quality materials, the base plate includes an EVA molding and a hydrocolloid layer, ensuring durable adhesion and skin protection. Its design effectively manages tension and compression on the abdominal skin and fat layers, providing comfort and security for ostomates.
