Hollister Adapt Barrier Extender - Box Of 30

Hollister CeraPlus Barrier Extenders are designed to enhance the security and wear time of your ostomy skin barrier. Infused with ceramide, a natural component of healthy skin, these extenders help maintain skin integrity by forming a protective barrier around the stoma. Their thin, flexible, hydrocolloid adhesive conforms to body contours, helping to minimize edge lifting and reduce leakage.

Features:

• Wide Design: Allows for easier handling and precise application.
• Leak Prevention: Helps hold the skin barrier in place and prevents edge lifting.
• Three-Piece Configuration: Use all or only where needed for a personalized, secure fit.
• Ceramide-Infused Protection: Supports skin health by creating a waterproof, skin-friendly seal.
• Flexible Hydrocolloid Adhesive: Thin and adaptable for a comfortable, secure fit around the barrier.

Using CeraPlus Barrier Extenders:

1. Prepare the skin by removing existing skin barrier and clean the skin around the stoma. Apply new skin barrier / pouching system.
2. Remove the paper backing from the barrier extender by stretching lightly at each end of the extender.
3. Release only one side of the paper backing.
4. Place the adhesive end of the barrier extender along the perimeter of the skin barrier; covering both skin barrier and the skin next to it. Remove the remaining paper backing. Run your fingers along the barrier extender to ensure that it adheres well.
5. Repeat for any additional strips you require around your barrier.
6. The barrier extenders will remove easily with your routine pouch change.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q1. Can I use barrier extenders with skin barriers that have an adhesive border barrier?

YES. Hollister is committed to helping you achieve a good fit with your pouching system. A tape border skin barrier is already designed to provide added security and prevent edge lifting. A barrier extender can be used to help provide extra security when necessary and may increase wear time.

Q2. Will this product provide security with my pouching system?

YES. This product will help secure the skin barrier and helps reduce edge lifting. If you are experiencing leakage problems, you should seek professional assistance from a stoma care nurse or health care professional.

Q3. Do barrier extenders contain latex?

NO. The product is made with hydrocolloid adhesive and polymer/copolymer plastics and not with natural rubber latex.

Q4. Is the packaging recyclable?

YES. Hollister strives to be environmentally responsible by being a steward of earth’s limited resources. The plastic packaging is recyclable.

Q5. Can I use less than three barrier extenders?

YES. The strips are to help provide you with extra security around your barrier. Use the strips in areas which you feel necessary or contact your stoma care nurse or health care professional to discuss.
