About Skin Barrier 45mm 34500 Ostomy Skin Barrier Osteotome

An ostomy skin barrier is a protective layer between ostomy bags and peristomal skin. Barriers are most commonly known as ostomy wafers that adhere to skin and keep ostomy pouches in place. There are other ostomy supplies that you can use to ensure a good fit of the system and further protect the skin, such as skin barrier powders, ostomy ring barriers, sprays, pastes, creams, ostomy barrier wipes, and strip barriers.

Reliable Protection for Stoma Care

Engineered for use in diverse ostomy procedures, the Osteotome Skin Barrier offers a blend of comfort and security. Its flexible hydrocolloid material contours effortlessly around the stoma, minimizing leaks and protecting sensitive skin from irritation. Suitable for single-use applications, it is compatible with a wide range of ostomy bags and provides dependable performance during daily activities.

Cut-to-Fit Flexibility and Universal Compatibility

The cut-to-fit design grants users and healthcare providers the versatility needed to personalize the barrier's fit. With a 45mm diameter, it adapts to a range of stoma sizes and shapes-streamlining bag changes and ensuring a leak-proof experience. Its universal compatibility with ostomy bag fittings makes it a practical choice for many users.
