For the many ostomates with large irregular stomas, hernias or even stomas that have been sited high up on the abdomen, finding a pouch that is not only comfortable but remains secure in every day activities can be difficult.
FreeStyle® Oval has been designed by Clinical Nurse Specialists specifically for ostomates with transverse loop colostomies, prolapsed colostomies, large irregular shaped stomas, and hernias. It incorporates Welland’s HyperFlex® hydrocolloid which is kind to the skin, with the oval shaped hydrocolloid flange facilitating maximum adhesion and security.
It is particularly useful in large oedematous stomas that need more hydrocolloid around the stoma site for extra security and protection.
Stomas that are sited high up on the abdomen are often uncomfortable due to the extra pouch material used on traditional pouches. Welland’s FreeStyle® Oval is designed with a low profile top for extra comfort that means it does not rub under breasts or show under shirts.
FreeStyle® Oval is ideal for use on parastomal hernias as its flexible hydrocolloid flange shape allows conformity in all directions.
It has a clearly marked transparent oval cutting guide for accurate customising.
