Understanding colostomy barrier ring

The colostomy barrier ring(also known as the plastic tape ring) is a key component in the stoma care system.By forming a sealed barrier around the root of the stoma and filling the gap between the central hole of the chassis and the stoma, it effectively prevents excrement from coming into contact with the skin and protect the skin health around the stoma.

Features and Benefits of colostomy barrier ring

Leak-proof seal: ‌By closely adhering to the root of the stoma and filling the gap between the stoma and the base, it effectively prevents the leakage of excrement and ensures safe daily activities.
Skin protection: ‌Soft materials are used to cushion the pressure of the chassis, reducing the risk of skin friction and damage.
Firmly fixed: ‌The unique sticky design ensures long-term fixation, maintaining stability even with frequent activities and enhancing the comfort of care.
Malleability fit:It can be stretched or cut and adjusted according to different stoma shapes (round, oval, ileal, etc.) to ensure a close fit to the mucosa at the root of the stoma.
‌Material and usage requirements:
For single use only. Store away from heavy pressure, direct sunlight and damp environment. ‌
Prohibited for those allergic to the material. Corrosive gases must be protected during transportation.
Special scene adaptation: ‌Complex shapes such as double-cavity stoma should be used in combination with leak-proof paste or spliced leak-proof rings to avoid overlapping and affecting the bonding effect.

How to choose right colostomy barrier ring

Thickness selection: ‌
2mm leak-proof ring:suitable for situations where the skin around the stoma is flat with few wrinkles and the excrement is relatively thin. ‌
4mm leak-proof ring:suitable for uneven skin, obvious depressions or wrinkles, or thick excrement, it can better fill the gaps and enhance the sealing performance. ‌
Give priority to materials with good elasticity, water and leakage resistance, and high adhesion, such as hydrocolloid materials.
Compatibility and operation: ‌Choose single-loop or double-loop according to the shape of the stoma. For double-stoma, cut and apply. ‌
When in use, ensure the skin is dry. The leak-proof ring should be closely attached to the root of the stoma at 360 degrees, and the edge should be pressed firmly with a cotton swab. ‌
Special case handling: ‌When there are many skin wrinkles, the “8-shaped winding method” can be adopted to enhance sealing. ‌
When the activity level is high, it is recommended to use elastic tape for fixation to prevent displacement. ‌
