The flange size determines how securely the pouch attaches to the barrier and provides coverage for the adhesive area. Selecting the right flange size depends on your stoma size and pouch compatibility. A properly sized flange offers a secure seal and comfort, while too large or too small a flange may compromise performance. For example, the Coloplast 12845 features a 2" flange, ideal for certain pouch systems and stoma sizes. With various flange sizes offered across the product line, you can easily find the one that fits your system and personal requirements.
