Introducing, our new one-piece soft convex ostomy pouching system, Esteem Body™ with Leak Defense™. A combination of our gold-standard adhesives with a comprehensive soft convexity range, designed to adapt to the body for a secure, longer-lasting seal.
Featuring Convatec's exclusive Leak Defense™
Range of soft convexity combinations are designed to get the right fit, right from the start.
- To achieve central or peripheral tension
- Created to adapt to the needs of unique body and stoma types
Gold standard adhesives secure the barrier, protecting the skin.
- Pioneers in hydrocolloids
- Created to stop skin irritation before it starts
- Created to help users get it right the first time, every time
Your patients deserve a pouch that makes them feel good.
Designed to adapt to different stomas and body types
Convexity allows ostomy skin barriers to:
- Fit a flush or retracted stoma to provide tension as close as possible to the stoma if protrusion of the stoma is needed
- Flatten peristomal skin folds using tension away form the stoma that may interfere with achieving a consistent, reliable seal
- Adapt to each persons unique body and stoma type
Understanding the 5 Characteristics of Convexity
Adhesives created to stop skin irritation before it starts.
Choose between Durahesive® and Modified Stomahesive®
Liquid output? Try Durahesive®. It's designed for people whose output is mostly liquid. It swells up, or 'turtlenecks' to provide a secure seal and extended wear time.
Semi-formed or formed output? Try Modified Stomahesive®. Ideal for people whose output is semi-formed or formed. It adheres to both dry and moist skin and features a touch of mineral oil that makes the barrier more flexible and easier to remove.
Medically Tested
Independent Testing Laboratory: Comprehensive range for every body.
An independent laboratory conducted testing to evaluate key performance attributes of Esteem Body™ soft convex products as well as the other leading brands.
Findings:
The Esteem Body™ soft convex product line featuring 8 combinations of tension location and depth, offers the largest range of options to choose location and magnitude of tension versus other leading brands.
The Finite Element Analysis: The right fit right from the start.
The Finite Element Analysis simulations helped visualize how the 8 different convex geometries alter the location and magnitude of the tension and compression applied to the abdominal wall change around an ostomy.
What was measured:
How different depths and diameter of convexity produced skin tension and fat compression at different locations and magnitudes.
Why Esteem Body™?
The FEA showed how both location and magnitude of tension working together with all convexity characteristics are key contributors to achieving clinical stoma management goals. Following the independent labratory's findings, the Esteem Body™ soft convex one-piece product line offers the largest range of options to choose location and magnitude of tension versus other leading brands.
