Clinical FAQs

What makes the Flextend barrier different from a standard extended wear barrier?

Flextend is Hollister's proprietary synthetic barrier material engineered specifically for high liquid output — particularly ileostomy effluent, which is enzymatically active and erodes standard barriers faster than formed colostomy output. Flextend's chemical formulation resists this enzymatic erosion more effectively than both standard wear and conventional extended wear barriers, extending the time before the barrier begins to break down. The practical result is longer wear time between changes and reduced frequency of peristomal skin exposure to damaging output. Note: do not use Skin Gel Wipes (Hollister #7917) or other skin prep wipes with Flextend — they chemically interact with the material and reduce wear time.

How does the Lock n Roll microseal closure work?

The Lock n Roll closure replaces the traditional tail clip with a plastic interlocking fastener system. To close: roll the tail upward three times in the same direction, then press from the middle outward until the seal is felt engaging. The closure does not require a separate clip — the interlocking strips hold the seal. To empty: lightly pinch the sides of the outlet, which releases the lock and allows controlled output flow; the strips re-engage and re-seal automatically as soon as pinching stops. The system is designed to be operated with one hand and is accessible for patients with limited dexterity, reduced grip strength, or visual impairment — a meaningful clinical advantage over conventional tail clips that require precise alignment.

What is the ComfortWear panel and where is it on this pouch?

ComfortWear is Hollister's soft, cloth-like pouch panel material. On the Ultra-Clear version (SKU 8531), the ComfortWear panel is on the body-facing side only — the outward-facing side remains the clear/transparent film that allows visual monitoring. This gives the patient skin-side comfort from the soft panel while retaining full visual output inspection from the front. The Beige (non-transparent) version of the Premier pouch has ComfortWear on both sides for maximum discretion. If full panel discretion is the priority, the beige version is the appropriate choice.

Is this pouch appropriate for ileostomy, colostomy, or both?

Both. The Flextend barrier is particularly well-suited for ileostomy due to its high resistance to liquid, enzymatic output — the environment where standard barriers fail earliest. It can also be used for colostomy patients, particularly those with looser output who find standard or conventional extended wear barriers eroding too quickly. For colostomy patients with formed output who are not experiencing wear time issues, the additional cost of Flextend may not be clinically necessary — a standard extended wear barrier would suffice.

What is a flat barrier and when is a convex barrier needed instead?

A flat barrier lies flush against a normally contoured abdomen — appropriate when the stoma protrudes normally above the skin surface. A convex barrier curves inward, applying gentle outward pressure on the peristomal skin to improve the seal on flush, retracted, or recessed stomas. If the Premier flat barrier is experiencing consistent seal failure or undermining despite proper fit and application technique, consult a WOC nurse to assess whether convexity is indicated before switching. Hollister offers convex versions of the Premier line for patients where convexity is clinically indicated.

What do the belt tabs and tape border do?

Belt tabs are small loops on either side of the barrier through which an ostomy support belt threads. A belt is not required but can be added by patients who need additional mechanical security during high-activity periods, sports, or for reassurance. The tape border is an adhesive ring around the outer edge of the skin barrier — it adheres to the surrounding skin beyond the barrier edges, providing an additional layer of adhesion security and helping prevent the barrier edges from lifting during movement or perspiration. For patients prone to edge lifting, applying gentle pressure to the tape border after application is recommended.

How do I cut the opening correctly for this barrier?

Measure the stoma at its widest point using the Hollister stoma measuring guide included in the box. Stoma size can change — measure before every change, especially during the post-operative period when edema is resolving. Trace the stoma outline onto the center release paper of the barrier. Separate the front and back panels slightly before cutting to avoid cutting through the pouch film. Use curved, short-blade scissors and cut along the tracing. The opening should fit where the skin meets the stoma — no exposed peristomal skin inside the opening, but no barrier material pressing into the stoma tissue. This barrier accommodates openings up to 2-1/2" (64mm).
