Coloplast SenSura Standard Wear Convex Light 70mm ( 11041 )

The Coloplast SenSura Standard Wear Convex Light 70mm is a component of a two-piece ostomy management system. This particular item is a baseplate designed to be attached to the skin around the stoma. Its primary function is to provide a secure and comfortable interface between the wearer's skin and the ostomy pouch.

The baseplate is engineered with a light convex shape, which is intended to apply gentle pressure to the peristomal skin. This pressure can assist in encouraging a stoma that may be retracted or located in uneven skin contours to protrude slightly, thereby facilitating a better seal and potentially reducing the likelihood of output leakage. The material composition of the baseplate incorporates a double-layer adhesive technology.

The outer layer is designed to protect the skin from direct contact with stoma output, while the inner layer is formulated to absorb excess moisture, contributing to the maintenance of peristomal skin health. This baseplate is designed for standard wear duration. It features belt ears, allowing for the optional attachment of an ostomy belt for added security and support.

The 70mm designation refers to the size of the opening in the baseplate, which can be cut to fit stomas ranging from 10mm to 53mm in diameter. This specific product is the baseplate component and is designed to connect with compatible ostomy pouches via a mechanical coupling system. The connection mechanism is designed to provide a secure attachment, with an audible confirmation to indicate proper engagement.

The system allows for rotation of the pouch relative to the baseplate prior to locking, offering flexibility in positioning the pouch after it has been attached. This product is intended for use by individuals with a surgically created stoma, such as a colostomy or urostomy. It is utilized by patients managing their ostomy at home, as well as by healthcare professionals, including ostomy nurses and surgeons, who recommend and fit ostomy supplies.

Typical applications involve the management of stomas that present challenges due to their location or contour, such as flush or retracted stomas, or those situated in areas prone to skin folds. The light convexity is a key feature for these specific stoma types. When using this product, it is important to ensure the peristomal skin is clean and dry before application.

The baseplate should be cut to accurately fit the stoma size, leaving a small margin of skin exposed to the adhesive. Adherence to the manufacturer's instructions for application and removal is recommended to optimize performance and skin integrity. The 70mm size refers to the maximum diameter of the opening that can be cut from the baseplate, accommodating stomas up to 53mm.

The product code for this specific item is 11041.
