| The Tandem system clearly offers a range of options for the two-piece pouch user. Whether you need an extended wear or standard wear barrier, tape or no tape, convex or flat barrier, you will find it here. All Tandem flanges offer the Hollister patented floating flange to increase comfort on tender abdomens. A wide variety of pouch options are available. |
|
Drainable Pouches
A pouch that opens from the bottom to empty the contents. A drainable pouch requires some type of clamp on the bottom to keep it closed. A person with a colostomy or ileostomy (NOT a urostomy) would use this type of pouch. |
|
Closed Pouches
A pouch that is not drainable from the bottom. When it is full, it is removed and thrown away. Most often a person with a colostomy would use this type of pouch. |
|
|
|
|
Urostomy Pouches
This type of pouch has a drain tap or spout at the end since it is designed to drain liquid contents (usually urine) from a pouch. A person with a urostomy or urinary diversion would use this type of pouch. |
