When choosing a pouch, the stoma opening size and type are crucial for a secure, comfortable fit and optimal skin protection. A pre-cut opening, such as a 1-3/8" oval, is ideal for those with a consistent stoma size, offering convenience and minimizing skin irritation. Those with irregular or changing stoma sizes might prefer a cut-to-fit option for customization. In this category, you’ll typically find pre-cut sizes like the 1-3/8" oval featured in products such as the Coloplast 12176 Assura Non-Convex Skin Barrier, Closed Pouch, which is great for users who value speed and consistency. Multiple stoma opening options are available so you can select the best fit for your needs.
