The barrier type is essential because it affects skin protection, wear time, and resistance to output. Extended wear synthetic barriers, like Flextend®, offer superior resistance to discharge and are ideal for high-output situations, providing longer wear and reducing skin irritation. The Hollister 81110 Premier High Output 12" Drainable Pouch features the Flextend® barrier, making it particularly suitable for those seeking extra protection and durability. There are a variety of barrier types available, so you can choose the best fit for your skin sensitivity and output type.
