New Image 2-Piece Cut-to-Fit Flextend (Extended Wear) Skin Barrier with Floating Flange and Tape Border 1-3/4" Stoma Size, 2-1/4" Flange Size, Red

This skin barrier is part of a two-piece pouching system. The Flextend barrier is an extended wear skin barrier that is durable and offers high resistance to erosion. The skin barrier has an integrated floating flange, which allows fingers to be placed under the flange, to help minimize pressure on the abdomen when attaching a pouch.

  • Cut-to-fit and pre-sized skin barrier options
  • Available with or without tape border

Flextend

  • Synthetic skin barrier that is designed to be the most resistant to discharge.
  • Barrier of choice for many urostomies and ileostomies.
  • Best choice for people who perspire heavily.
  • A non-eroding barrier that swells when it comes in contact with liquid discharge.
  • The use of a skin sealant (Skin Gel wipe) interferes with its adhesion and, as a result, will decrease the wear time.

Color Matching System

To help you select compatible New Image pouching system components, every box label is color-coded. First, select the proper skin barrier; then select a matching color-coded pouch ("red" skin barrier box label is compatible to any "red" pouch box label).

A two-piece system is the most versatile. It comes with a skin barrier that is separate from the pouch. The pieces snap together with a flange, a part that looks like a plastic ring. (see page 4) It is easy to leave the skin barrier attached to your skin and unsnap the pouch and discard it as often as you like.

  • Comfortable and flexible for active lifestyles
  • Skin barriers available with or without tape
  • New Image pouches are compatible only with New Image skin barrier

Why Choose a Two-Piece Pouching System?

With a two-piece pouching system, the skin barrier and pouch are separate and connect together with a plastic ring, or flange. Here are a few reasons why you might want to use a two-piece pouching system:

  • You may want to change your pouch more often than your skin barrier
  • You may want to alternate between different pouch styles. For example, you might want to wear a smaller pouch during exercise or in the shower, and a larger pouch at night
  • You may find it easier to center your skin barrier over your stoma using a two-piece system

Two-Piece Pouching System Tips

  • If using a barrier ring or paste, apply it to the sticky side of the skin barrier next to the stoma opening as directed
  • The skin around your stoma should not show any signs of rash or sores
  • Irritated skin should be evaluated by a healthcare professional
  • Your stoma will probably be swollen after surgery. It may take several weeks or months for the stoma to shrink to its permanent size
  • The stoma may bleed slightly when you clean it
  • The use of skin protective wipes are not recommended under extended wear skin barriers as they may decrease wear time
