What is a Colostomy Bag?

Product Category:

A Colostomy Bag is a medical device used to collect waste from the colon that is surgically diverted to an opening in the abdomen. This ostomy appliance can be closed or drainable and is available as one-piece or two-piece systems. Sizes also vary depending on the patient's specific needs.

Colostomy bags are designed to be discreet and comfortable, with features such as odor barriers and soft materials to help maintain patient dignity and comfort. Patients with a colostomy can receive training and support to learn how to manage their ostomy appliance and maintain good hygiene to prevent skin irritation and infection.

AdvaCare Pharma manufactures Colostomy Bags in ISO and CE-certified facilities located in China, India, and the USA. Our incontinence products are created with top-quality materials and are tailored to satisfy the demands of healthcare providers and patients worldwide. We adhere to rigorous quality control measures to ensure that our ostomy products are safe and trustworthy.

Product Specifications

Closure Type

One-Piece System

One-Piece System colostomy bag consists of a base plate used as a skin barrier around the stoma, with the pouch joined together as a single unit. They provide simplicity and convenience as compared to two-piece systems, but require changing the entire unit including the skin barrier when the pouch is changed. These bags are made of non-woven material to ensure safety and reliability.

Non-adhesive Two-Piece System

Non-adhesive Two-Piece System colostomy bags are designed to allow the pouch to be changed while leaving the barrier/wafer attached to the skin around the stoma. The barrier/wafer is part of a flange unit, and the connection mechanism to join both parts consists of a pressure fit snap ring. These systems provide greater flexibility than one-piece systems, as only the pouch needs to be changed instead of the entire unit. They are suitable for patients with sensitive skin or those who require frequent pouch changes.

Adhesive Two-Piece System

Adhesive Two-Piece System colostomy bags are designed to allow for easy and convenient changes of the pouch while leaving the barrier or wafer attached to the skin surrounding the stoma. The system consists of two separate parts: the barrier/wafer and the pouch, which are joined together using an adhesive mechanism. This type of colostomy bag is suitable for individuals who prefer an adhesive attachment over a snap ring or flange. The adhesive ensures a secure fit and helps to prevent leakage, allowing individuals to feel confident and comfortable while going about their daily activities.

Uses

How should a Colostomy Bag be used?

When using a colostomy bag, ensure that the area around the stoma is clean and dry before attaching the bag. The bag should be emptied when it is about one-third to one-half full, or more frequently if necessary. To empty the bag, it must be unclamped or unsealed and the contents emptied into a toilet or other appropriate disposal location.

How should a Colostomy Bag be cleaned and disposed?

After emptying the bag, it should be cleaned with warm water and mild soap and dried thoroughly before reattaching. Once the bag has been used and is no longer needed, it should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations for medical waste.

FAQs

What is the difference between a one-piece system, non-adhesive two-piece system, and adhesive two-piece system for Colostomy Bags?

A One-Piece System is an integrated colostomy bag and skin barrier that cannot be separated. It is convenient for individuals who prefer a simple and compact option. A Non-adhesive Two-Piece System consists of a colostomy bag and a separate skin barrier or wafer that is attached using an external belt or adhesive. An Adhesive Two-Piece System includes a colostomy bag and a skin barrier or wafer that has an adhesive backing for direct application to the skin. It provides a secure and discreet fit.

How often should a Colostomy Bag be emptied and changed?

On average, it is recommended to empty the colostomy bag when it is about one-third to half full to prevent excessive weight and possible leaks. Changing the entire colostomy bag typically occurs every 1 to 3 days or as needed, ensuring good hygiene and skin care during the process.

How should Colostomy Bags be stored and handled?

Colostomy bags should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Ensure they are stored in their original packaging or a clean, sealable container to maintain their cleanliness and protect them from contamination. When handling colostomy bags, it is important to have clean hands or wear disposable gloves to maintain hygiene and reduce the risk of infection. Proper disposal of used colostomy bags should follow local regulations.
