The Assura 1-piece drainable range comes with adhesive barriers permanently fixed to the pouch. To replace the pouch, the entire appliance needs to be taken off and replaced. Assura 1-piece drainable products can be found in flat, convex light, or convex adhesive barriers, and come in both transparent and opaque versions. These pouches have either pre-cut or cut-to-fit barriers, allowing users to achieve a custom fit.
Assura spiral adhesive is a multi-component design that guarantees secure attachment to your skin and also helps to reduce moisture from your skin to provide a protective and comfortable barrier.
Assura 1-piece drainable offers an array of comfort and discreet features, such as its EasiCloseTMoutlet. This outlet can be emptied and cleaned effortlessly, and its Velcro® closure is integrated and easily tucked away, dispensing of the need for a closure clamp. Moreover, it has an integrated three-layer filter which works to reduce odors and mitigate the chance of the pouch ballooning and creating undesirable bulges. Last, its soft backing fabric is water-resistant, allowing for effortless drying after showers or swimming.
Assura 1-piece drainable is available with two different levels of convexity, designed to help a stoma that is difficult to manage: for example, a stoma that is flush, retracted, or located in a skin fold. It applies pressure on the peristomal skin to reduce the risk of leakage by allowing the stoma to protrude.Convex light: A solution for flush or slightly retracted stomas, providing extra security through light and delicate pressure on the abdomen. Convex: A solution for retracted stomas and deep skin folds and scars, providing extra security through moderate to high pressure on the abdomen. Ask your ostomy nurse for more information about convexity.
