Coloplast Sensura Base plate 70mm ( 10045 )

The Coloplast SenSura Base Plate 70mm (10045) is a component of a two-piece ostomy management system. This base plate is designed to be attached to the skin around the stoma and serves as the anchor for a separate ostomy pouch. The system utilizes a mechanical coupling mechanism to connect the base plate to the ostomy pouch, offering a secure and audible confirmation of attachment.

The flat profile of the base plate is intended for individuals with a flush or retracted stoma, providing a secure seal against the skin. The base plate is constructed with a double-layer adhesive designed to offer both skin protection and moisture management. The outer layer acts as a barrier against stoma output, while the inner layer is formulated to absorb perspiration and moisture, promoting skin health.

The mechanical coupling allows for rotation of the ostomy pouch relative to the base plate prior to locking, enabling optimal positioning for comfort and discretion. The audible “click” signifies that the pouch is securely fastened to the base plate. This product is suitable for individuals with colostomies and urostomies.

The 70mm designation refers to the outer diameter of the coupling mechanism, which is compatible with specific ostomy pouches designed for this size. The base plate is equipped with belt ears, allowing for the attachment of an ostomy belt for added security and support, particularly during physical activity or for individuals with abdominal support needs. This base plate is intended for use by patients managing their ostomy, as well as by healthcare professionals and caregivers assisting with ostomy care.

Typical applications include daily ostomy management, providing a secure and comfortable interface between the stoma and the external pouching system. It is important to ensure the skin is clean and dry before application and to follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper application and removal to maintain skin integrity. The cutting size range of the associated ostomy pouches is typically between 12mm and 65mm, allowing for customization to fit the individual stoma size.

The base plate itself does not have a cutting size; rather, it is designed to accommodate a stoma within a specified range when used with a compatible pouch. The 70mm size indicates the flange diameter, not the stoma opening. The double-layer adhesive is a key feature for skin health, aiming to prevent irritation and maceration.

The mechanical coupling provides a reliable connection, reducing the risk of accidental detachment. The ability to rotate the pouch before locking offers user convenience and improved wearability. This component is a critical part of a system that aims to provide security, comfort, and skin protection for individuals with ostomies.
