Advantages of the 2-Piece Ostomy System by ConvaTec
Advantages of the 2-Piece Ostomy System by ConvaTec
Have you struggled, or are simply not satisfied, with a one-piece ostomy system? They most certainly come with disadvantages. These inconveniences include inherent limitations to fitting securely around your stoma, along with challenges to releasing excess gas (discretely) as needed. There are a variety of other reasons why you may not have had a great experience with a one-piece system, which leads to your investigation over whether or not a two-piece will provide for your needs. It most certainly can, but like with any medical-supply product, not all options in the Canadian marketplace are created equally. Choosing the right brand is imperative to successful stoma care. When it comes to two-piece products there is nary a better choice than ConvaTec Natura. Let’s review.
Why Ostomates in Canada Are Turning to ConvaTec Natura 2-Piece Ostomy Systems
Moldable, More Secure Fit Around Your Stoma
A two-piece system is innately designed to fit better around your stoma than a one-piece system. They typically allow for visual proof that your wafer was cut and applied properly. However, ConvaTec takes things a step further to add greater confidence to its product line.
Look to their Natura Two-Piece Stomahesive skin barrier as an example. It is moldable to a more custom fit but also features a plastic coupling ring that permits the pouch and skin barrier to snap together for better security. The audible sound it makes when connected most certainly provides added confidence. This dependable skin barrier has also been formulated to adhere to both dry and moist skin, making it appropriate for a variety of activities (work and play) and conditions (internal and external climate). These specialized Natura Two-Piece systems mold to the distinctive shape of your stoma, allowing for a personalized and secure fit without having to cut the wafer. The latter is a huge benefit for those who are constantly on the go!
It’s important to note that Stomahesive skin barriers are best suited for ostomates whose stoma output is semi-formed to formed. If your output is predominantly liquid, then you want ConvaTec Natura Durahesive skin barriers. They are cut-to-fit, but the Durahesive formula with flexible tape collar molds to your contours exceedingly well. What really sets this particular two-piece product apart, is that the skin barrier expands above the stoma with excessive liquid output, which prevents leakage and ultimately protects your stoma and peristomal skin.
No matter which of the two barriers you need to complete your stoma management kit, ConvaTec Moldable Technology provides the most custom fit.
Two-Piece Pouch for One-Time Use
Don’t currently require a drainable pouch? Need a one-time use solution for a quick trip or other scenarios when you don’t have the time for routine ostomy care? You don’t have to go back to using a one-piece system. Amidst the ConvaTec Natura Two-Piece product line you’ll find their 2-piece closed-end pouch. This disposable product is designed for one-time usage, with a premium filter that effectively mitigates odour and gas buildup. There’s no draining required, nor do you have to contend with an uncomfortable clip. And will it fit securely along the unique contours of your stoma? Absolutely, as it’s compatible with Stomahesive and Durahesive skin barriers.
Two-Piece for Urostomates Too
People living with a urostomy have needs that the above two-piece solutions don’t account for. But again, if this is you, you do not have to resign back to a one-piece system. ConvaTec Natura’s Urostomy Pouch also features a plastic coupling ring to allow the pouch and skin barrier to snap together for greater security. And like with its cousins, it too benefits by coupling with a barrier that employs patterned ConvaTec Moldable Technology.
