Description
The Alterna 1 Piece Drainable Bag by Coloplast is expertly crafted to meet the needs of individuals requiring reliable stoma care. This innovative one-piece ostomy appliance integrates a unique spiral adhesive, ensuring secure adherence while protecting the skin. The adhesive's moisture-absorbing properties help prevent irritation, providing comfort and peace of mind.
Design and Functionality
The one-piece design simplifies the application and removal process, as the adhesive barrier is permanently attached to the pouch. This product is available with either flat or convex baseplates. The convex option is particularly beneficial for managing challenging stomas, such as those that are retracted or located in deep skin folds, by applying moderate to high pressure to reduce leakage.
Customization Options
To accommodate various stoma sizes, the Alterna 1 Piece Drainable Bag offers both cut-to-fit and pre-cut options. The pouches come in different sizes, including Maxi 470ml and Midi 330ml, and are available in transparent or opaque materials. Transparent pouches allow for easy monitoring, while opaque pouches provide discretion.
Secure Closure and Comfort
Each pouch features a self-adhesive soft closing clip, ensuring secure closure and facilitating easy cleaning. The soft backing fabric enhances comfort and dries quickly, making it suitable for daily wear. Additionally, the odour-proof film and high-quality leak-resistant materials contribute to a discreet and dependable experience.
Intended Use
This drainable bag is designed for individuals with colostomies, ileostomies, or similar needs, offering a practical solution for varying stoma sizes and types. Users are encouraged to read the label and instructions for important safety information, including intended use, contraindications, warnings, and precautions.
