1 Measure the stoma using a
sizing guide or use a pattern
provided by your nurse (if
using a pre-sized barrier
opening, go to step 4).
5 Carefully lift an edge of
the adhesive and peel
downward, gently pushing
the skin away from the
skin barrier. Properly
dispose of used pouch. Do
not flush down toilet.
7 Center the skin barrier
opening over the stoma.
10 Close bottom of pouch. If
using a drainable pouch,
close the
Lock ’n Roll
closure at the bottom of
the pouch or apply a
pouch clamp. Refer to the
Lock ’n Roll Closure Care
Tip for more information
on how to use this closure
system.
3 Pull the pouch film away
from the skin barrier. Using
small curved scissors,
carefully cut an opening in
the skin barrier to match the
pattern. Do not cut beyond
the line on the release liner.
Do not puncture the pouch.
2 Trace the pattern onto the
skin barrier. The skin
barrier should fit closely
around the stoma.
6 Clean the skin with water
or with gentle soap as
recommended by your
healthcare provider. Rinse
and dry thoroughly. Do not
use oils, powder, lotion,
or lotion-type soaps on
the skin.
9 For tape-bordered barriers,
remove the backing paper
on both sides and gently
press adhesive against skin.
4 Remove the release liner
from skin barrier. Set aside
with adhesive facing up.
If using a urostomy pouch,
make sure the drain valve is
closed. The teardrop on the
drain valve should face the
body side of the pouch. If
desired, apply the cap
provided in the box.
