ConvaTec Little Ones One-Piece Cut-To-Fit Transparent Drainable Pouch With Stomahesive Skin Barrier

More Information

• How to Use ConvaTec Little Ones One-Piece ostomy system:
  - Begin by cleansing the skin around your childs stoma with a mild, non-oily soap and warm water. If you prefer to use commercial wet wipes on the skin around the stoma, choose a brand that does not contain oils or lotions, since they make it difficult for the pouching system to stick. The skin should be free of any solvent or greasy substances. Pat dry thoroughly.
• Skin Barrier/Pouch Preparation and Application:
  - Measure the stoma size from the base of the stoma with the measuring guide provided.
  - Trace the stoma outline you have selected onto the release paper on the skin barrier. The small starter hole should be in the center of your tracing. (Gloving may not be necessary; consult with your healthcare professional).
  - Important: Before cutting, separate the front and back panels of the pouch to avoid cutting through the pouch. Pouch should contain a small amount of air. Cut along the tracing with curved, short-blade scissors.
  - Cut the center hole the same size as the stoma, using guidelines on the release paper. Do not cut beyond the last line.
  - Prior to applying the pouch, it is recommended that you close the InvisiClose clipless tail closure system by folding upwards and pressing the interlocking closures together until you feel them lock into place. A click indicates a secure closure
  - Remove white release paper from the skin barrier.
  - Place the pouching system gently in position over your childs stoma.
  - Press the skin barrier against the skin, paying particular attention to the area closest to the stoma.
  - During application, maintain gentle pressure on the skin barrier for 30 seconds to improve adhesion.
• Pouch Removal:
  - To remove the old pouch and skin barrier, have a wet paper towel or soft washcloth ready to clean the skin. Hold the edge of the pouch with one hand and push down gently on the skin with your other hand to release the skin from the pouch and the skin barrier. Go slowly and gently. Discard as necessary.
