The barrier type—flat, convex, or deep convex—is a key consideration based on stoma profile and peristomal skin contours. Flat barriers work well for protruding stomas and flat abdomens, while convex and deep convex options provide added pressure and a better seal for recessed or flush stomas. This helps reduce leaks and improves comfort. For instance, Nu-Hope 7205 offers a flat barrier, while Nu-Hope 7207-C provides a convex option, and Nu-Hope 7209-DC features deep convexity for challenging stoma sites. This range ensures you can choose the barrier type that best suits your individual anatomy and needs.
