Description

The Alterna 1 Piece Comfort is an innovative ostomy pouching system crafted by Coloplast, designed to provide reliable and discreet care for individuals with colostomies and ileostomies. This one-piece system integrates the pouch and adhesive baseplate, allowing for seamless changes as the entire appliance is removed and replaced at each use.

Adhesive Technology

At the heart of this system is the unique spiral adhesive, engineered for secure adherence and skin protection. The adhesive features multiple flex zones, offering flexibility and moisture absorption to minimize skin irritation and maintain skin health. Available in both flat and convex baseplate options, it caters to various stoma types and skin contours, enhancing comfort and reducing leakage risk.

Customizable Fit

The system provides versatile stoma opening options with pre-cut and cut-to-fit variants, accommodating a wide range of sizes. Pouch capacities are available in Maxi and Midi sizes, with color options including transparent, opaque, and graphic designs to suit personal preferences for discretion and monitoring.

Secure Closure

Closure options such as EasiClose or Velcro ensure secure, hygienic management with a large hide-away outlet for easy emptying and leak-proof sealing. The integrated multi-layer filter effectively reduces ballooning and neutralizes odors, complemented by an odor-proof film for enhanced discretion.

Comfort Features

Each pouch is equipped with a soft backing fabric that is breathable and quick-drying, providing comfort against the skin. Select variants include a self-adhesive soft closing clip for additional security and ease of cleaning.

Convexity Options

Convex baseplate options, including shallow convexity, are designed to apply moderate to high pressure around the stoma. This feature is particularly beneficial for managing difficult stomas, promoting stoma protrusion, and minimizing leakage.

Intended Use

The Alterna 1 Piece Comfort is intended for individuals with stomas at skin level or those with challenging stoma management needs. Available in various sizes, baseplate shapes, and pack sizes, it offers a tailored solution to meet diverse needs.

Users are advised to read the label and instructions for detailed guidance on application, contraindications, warnings, and precautions, ensuring safe and effective use of the product.
