How to change Hollister 2-Piece Ostomy System?
Collect Supplies:
- Gather ostomy pouch
- Skin barrier
- Disposal bag
- Tissue and/ or cloth for cleaning
- Water
- Optional: scissors, pen, measuring card, and/or accessories.
Prepare the Skin Barrier and Pouch:
1. Measure the stoma using a stoma measuring guide before every barrier application (if using a pre-sized barrier opening, go to step 4).
2. Trace the determined barrier size opening onto the skin barrier. The skin barrier should fit where the skin and stoma meet. Verify that no skin is showing between the skin barrier and the stoma to help prevent leakage and skin irritation.
3. Using small curved scissors, carefully cut an opening in the skin barrier to match the pattern. Do not cut beyond the line on the release liner.
4. Remove the release liner from the skin barrier. Set aside with adhesive facing up.
Remove Used Pouching System:
1. Carefully lift an edge of the adhesive and peel downward, gently pushing the skin away from the skin barrier. Properly dispose of used pouch and skin barrier. Do not flush down toilet.
2. Clean the skin with water or with gentle soap as recommended by your healthcare professional. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use oils, powder, lotion, or lotion-type soaps on the skin.
Apply the Hollister New Image Pouching System:
1. Center the skin barrier opening over the stoma in a diamond shape. For tape bordered barriers, remove the backing paper on both sides and press adhesive against the skin.
2. Apply gentle pressure to the skin barrier for about a minute for best adhesion.
3. Attach the drainable ostomy pouch to the skin barrier by engaging the lower edges of the pouch flange and the skin barrier flange. Press the two flanges together. A series of "clicks" will confirm you are doing it correctly. No more "clicks" means the pouch is secured.
4. Close bottom of pouch. If using a
Hollister New Image Two-Piece drainable pouch, close the Lock N Roll microseal closure at the bottom of the pouch or apply a pouch clamp. Refer to the Lock N Roll Microseal Closure Care Tip for more information on how to use this closure system.

Hollister New Image 2-Piece Ostomy Pouch Usage Tips

- The skin around your stoma should not show any signs of rash or sores
