Flange size is critical when selecting a pediatric two-piece ostomy system because it must match the size of the stoma for a secure and comfortable fit, ensuring effective leak protection and skin safety. The best flange size is one that fits closely around the stoma without being too tight or too loose, accommodating growth and movement in children. Available options in this category include 1(3/4)" (45 mm) as seen in the ConvaTec 401928, and 1(1/4)" (32 mm) as in the ConvaTec 401930 and ConvaTec 401925. Having a range of flange sizes available allows caregivers to choose the most secure and comfortable fit for each child’s needs.
