FAQs

What does 'drainable' mean for this ostomy pouch?

A drainable pouch has an opening at the bottom that can be opened to empty the contents directly into a toilet. Once emptied, the opening is securely resealed, allowing the pouch to be reused until it needs to be changed.

How do I ensure the Lock 'n Roll closure is secure?

Align the closure tabs and press them together firmly until you hear or feel a click. Ensure there is no stool or debris obstructing the closure mechanism before sealing.

Can I use this pouch with any ostomy barrier?

No, this pouch is specifically designed for use with Hollister New Image 2-piece systems that have a 4-inch flange size and a corresponding red color code. Always check compatibility before use.

How often should I empty this drainable pouch?

It is generally recommended to empty the pouch when it is about one-third to one-half full to prevent leakage, odor, and discomfort, and to maintain proper seal integrity.

What is the benefit of ComfortWear pouch panels?

ComfortWear panels are soft, fabric-like materials on the outside of the pouch that help reduce friction and provide a more comfortable feel against the skin, especially during prolonged wear or movement.

Can I swim or shower with this pouch?

Yes, the Lock 'n Roll closure is designed to be secure. However, ensure the seal is completely closed and dry the pouch externally after water exposure. For swimming, consider a pouch cover for discretion.

What is the color code for?

The red color code on the pouch opening helps to quickly identify its compatibility with Hollister flanges that also have a red color code, ensuring a correct and secure connection in a two-piece system.

Troubleshooting

Pouch not securely attached to the barrier.

Ensure the pouch is aligned correctly with the 4-inch flange and press firmly until the Lock 'n Roll Microseal closure clicks into place. Check that both the pouch and barrier connection points are clean and dry.

Leakage from the bottom closure.

Verify that the Lock 'n Roll Microseal closure is fully engaged and free of debris. Ensure the pouch has been emptied before it becomes too full.

Skin irritation around the stoma.

This could be due to the adhesive on the barrier or improper pouch fit. Consult with a healthcare professional or ostomy nurse. Ensure the correct barrier size and type are used, and change the pouching system regularly.

Pouch odor.

Ensure the Lock 'n Roll closure is securely sealed after emptying. Using internal pouch deodorizers may also help. Regular pouch changes and proper hygiene are essential.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This pouch is part of a two-piece system and requires a compatible ostomy barrier (flange) with a 4-inch diameter connection.

  1. Ensure the ostomy barrier is securely applied to the skin according to its instructions.
  2. Align the opening of the pouch with the connection point on the barrier.
  3. Press the pouch firmly onto the barrier, ensuring the Lock 'n Roll Microseal closure clicks into place, creating a secure seal.
  4. If desired, attach an ostomy belt to the integrated belt tabs for added security.

Compatibility:

This pouch is designed to connect with Hollister New Image 4-inch flanges. The red color code on the pouch opening indicates compatibility with Hollister flanges that also have a red color code, ensuring a proper match. Always verify the flange size and color code before attempting to connect.

Care:

  • Emptying: When the pouch is about one-third to one-half full, open the Lock 'n Roll Microseal closure at the bottom and empty the contents into the toilet. Rinse the inside of the pouch with water if desired, and securely close the seal.
  • Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the pouch with mild soap and water. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Changing: The pouch should be changed regularly, typically every 1-3 days, or when the adhesive on the skin barrier begins to fail, or if leaks occur. Dispose of used pouches properly.
