The Hollister 14603 – New Image Wafer 2.25″ is a 2-piece cut-to-fit Flextend skin barrier designed for high resistance to erosion. This skin barrier is durable and features an integrated floating flange, which allows fingers to be placed under the flange, to help minimize pressure on the abdomen when attaching a pouch. It is not made with natural rubber latex, making it suitable for those with latex allergies.
The Flextend skin barrier is an extended wear skin barrier that is designed to be the most resistant to discharge, making it the barrier of choice for many urostomies and ileostomies. It is also the best choice for people who perspire heavily.
This product is part of the New Image pouching system and is color-coded for easy matching with any New Image drainable, closed, or urostomy pouch with the same flange size. This product comes in a box of 5 and is cut-to-fit up to 1-3/4″.
Please note that the use of a skin sealant may interfere with its adhesion and, as a result, will decrease the wear time.
