How To Use Ostoform Seal With FLOWASSIST Protection?

1. Wash your hands and ensure the skin around your stoma is clean and dry. Warm the Seal in your hands for 30 seconds and remove the paper liners.
2. Position the FLOWASSIST spout below the stoma or rotate to align with the opening of the stoma. You can hold the spout to help position the Seal.
3. Wrap the ends of the Seal adhesive around the stoma ensuring the ends overlap.
4. Apply light pressure to the pouch to achieve secure adhesion.
5. If possible, check that no part of the Seal adhesive is visible. If you notice that an area of the Seal adhesive is exposed, try to adjust the pouch to cover this area.
6. Store between (0°C/32°F -30°C/86°F) in dry conditions and out of direct sunlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I use the FLOWASSIST Seal with either a flat or convex pouch?

   Yes. The FLOWASSIST Seal can be used with either a flat or convex pouch.

2. Can I apply the Ostoform Seal to my pouch first?

   It is recommended by Ostoform that you apply the FLOWASSIST Seal directly around your stoma to ensure a secure and accurate fit, though in some cases, the Seal may be applied to the pouch first.

3. Should the FLOWASSIST Seal last longer than current regular seals?

   Yes. Due to the non-absorbent spout protecting the absorbent seal, the FLOWASSIST Seal should last longer than regular seals. In a recent clinical study, 71% of participants stated that the FLOWASSIST Seal lasted longer than their current seal.

4. Can I use the FLOWASSIST Seal with either a flat or convex pouch?

   Yes. The FLOWASSIST Seal can be used with either a flat or convex pouch.

5. Can I use the FLOWASSIST Seal with either a one or two-piece pouch?

   Yes. The FLOWASSIST Seal can be used with either a one or two-piece pouch.

6. Am I likely to experience much residue on my skin after removal of the FLOWASSIST Seal?

   No. Due to the use of a next generation hydrocolloid, which does not disintegrate easily, little or no residue should be left.

7. Will the FLOWASSIST Seal break down underneath my stoma?

   The FLOWASSIST Seal is designed to minimize the risk of material breakdown by introducing a non-absorbent layer that directs the flow of stoma output away from your skin and into your pouch. This prevents it from being absorbed in towards your skin, as with standard ostomy seals.
