At Shop Ostomy Supplies you will find a range of ostomy bags (one- and two-piece), skin barriers, wafers, ostomy drainable pouches as well as products for the little ones in our Pediatric/Mini Size section. To keep the skin around the stoma opening hygienic and free of irritation, there are several skin protectants including ostomy paste and ostomy powder. Choose from the product range as per your needs depending on the type of your surgical procedure.
A colostomy is a surgically created opening in the abdomen through which a small portion of the large intestine is brought to the surface of the skin. The new gap, called a stoma, allows stool to pass directly out of the body. ConvaTec has developed a wide range of skin barriers and pouches to manage colostomy.
An ileostomy is a surgically created opening in the abdomen through which a small portion of the ileum or small intestine is brought to the surface of the skin. The new gap, called a stoma, allows stool to pass directly out of the body. ConvaTec has developed a wide range of skin barriers and pouches to best manage an ileostomy.
A urostomy or urinary diversion is a surgically-created gap within the abdomen that enables the urine to pass directly out of the body. ConvaTec has developed a wide range of skin barriers and pouches to best manage a urostomy.
They have a tap that allows urine to be drained frequently. Emptying the pouch is quick and easy.
There are several types of taps, depending on the pouch. The tap can be a simple cap, a valve that twists, or a plug that is pulled out.
They are meant to be emptied when they are about one-third to half full of urine.
They feature an anti-reflux valve. This keeps urine from refluxing to the top of the pouch and eroding the skin barrier, which is a critical component that connects your pouch to the skin around your stoma.
Some have chambers, which keeps the pouch from unsightly bulging between draining
