Usage and Fitting Instructions

Achieving a proper fit is vital for preventing irritation and leaks. To ensure the correct fit, please follow these guidelines:

• Use a measuring guide: Many ostomy supply manufacturers provide templates to ensure the correct fit.
• Measure at the base: Place the guide around your stoma to get an accurate measurement.
• Allow space for movement: Cut the skin barrier 1/8 inch (3mm) larger than your stoma to avoid irritation.
• Check for leaks: Ensure a snug fit without gaps to maintain a reliable seal.

Maintenance and Wear Time

Standard wear time for an ostomy pouch and skin barrier is 3 to 7 days, depending on activity level, skin type, and the product used. Using skin barrier rings and pastes can extend wear time and provide better adhesion.

Sleeping and Daily Life

You can sleep comfortably with an ostomy by using a high-capacity pouch to avoid frequent emptying. It is recommended to empty the pouch before bed to reduce the risk of leaks. Additionally, sleeping on your back or side can prevent pressure on the stoma.

When to Contact Your Stoma Nurse

You should contact your stoma nurse if you experience any of the following issues:

• Skin irritation around the stoma that does not improve.
• Leakage issues with your pouching system.
• Changes in your stoma’s size, color, or shape.
• Pain or discomfort that persists.
• Frequent pouch detachment or difficulty securing the system.
