Coloplast SenSura® 70mm Transparent Bag ( 10387 )

This is a two-piece drainable ostomy bag designed for individuals with colostomies or ileostomies. It is intended for the management of solid or semi-solid stoma output. The bag features a transparent viewing panel on one side, allowing for visual inspection of the stoma output.

The coupling mechanism is designed to attach securely to a corresponding baseplate, with an audible confirmation of attachment. The bag is constructed from materials that aim to provide discretion and comfort during wear. The outlet is designed for ease of emptying and is secured with a Velcro closure.

An integrated filter is incorporated to help manage gas and odor. This particular model has a 70mm coupling size, indicating the diameter of the opening that connects to the baseplate. It is designed to be compatible with specific baseplate types that share this 70mm coupling dimension.

The bag is intended for single use and should be replaced as needed based on individual care routines and output volume. Proper application and emptying are essential for optimal performance and to prevent leakage or skin irritation. Users should follow the instructions provided with the baseplate and bag for correct application and removal.

The transparent nature of the bag allows healthcare professionals and patients to monitor the output for consistency, color, and volume, which can be an indicator of digestive health and hydration status. The Velcro closure on the outlet is designed to be resealable after emptying, contributing to a secure seal. The integrated filter works by allowing gas to pass through while trapping odor particles, which helps to prevent the bag from inflating or "ballooning" and reduces the potential for odor release.

The overall design prioritizes both functionality for output management and user comfort and discretion. This product is suitable for use by patients managing their ostomy at home, as well as in clinical settings by healthcare professionals and caregivers assisting with ostomy care. Typical applications include daily management of stoma output, monitoring of output characteristics, and ensuring a secure and leak-free containment system.

It is important to ensure the correct size coupling is selected to match the baseplate for a secure and leak-proof seal. The transparent side should be positioned to allow for easy viewing without compromising discretion. Regular emptying of the bag is recommended to prevent overfilling and to maintain comfort.

The Velcro closure should be securely fastened after each emptying. The integrated filter should not be obstructed to ensure proper function. The bag is designed for use with a separate baseplate, which is not included with this product.
