3. Preparing the baseplate
4. Clipping the pouch
1A. Use a measuring guide to determine the size of your stoma.
1B. Cut the skin barrier to the measured size of your stoma.
It is important to cut the baseplate to the right size and
shape of your stoma. Remain within the maximum possible
cutting line on the baseplate and allow about 2mm around
your stoma for a secure fit. The stoma should not be strangled
by the base or the opening too wide to cause skin irritation
from your output.
Note: Regularly check the size of your stoma and adjust the
cutting area if necessary.
Gently clean the skin around your stoma with warm water.
Pay particular attention to where the stoma and skin meet.
Ensure skin is dry before applying the baseplate.
Alcohol, creams and other antiseptics may prevent the
base from staying in place and should be avoided.
3A. Remove the
protective backing off the
baseplate. Position the
baseplate over your stoma
taking care to place the 3
buttons at the top.
4A. Check that the outlet
of the pouch is closed
(urostomy and drainable).
Hold the pouch by its side
wings.
3B. Carefully press
baseplate on and ensure
baseplate is well stuck down
all around stoma and edges
of baseplate.
4B. Insert the guiding tab,
situated at the bottom
of the coupling ring, into
one of the slots at the
bottom of the base ring
(depending on which
position you want to use
the product in).
4C. Clip the pouch’s
upper tab on to the
corresponding base button.
4D. Interlock the two
rings by pressing them
together over the entire
circumference.
