The Coloplast Assura Deep Cut-to-fit Convex Barrier is a two-piece ostomy appliance featuring a mechanical coupling system for extra security and reassurance. The pouch attaches securely to the spiral adhesive barrier with an audible ‘click’ that confirms proper attachment. Before locking, the pouch can be rotated to accommodate body positions—standing, lying down, or emptying—without detaching it from the barrier. The coupling can be repositioned for left- or right-handed use. The pouch can also be changed independently from the adhesive barrier, allowing for more frequent pouch changes without disturbing the skin barrier.
The Assura spiral adhesive delivers security and skin protection through its spiral structure, which ensures firm adherence to the skin while absorbing moisture to reduce irritation. Extended wear adhesive is available for those with aggressive output, such as urostomy patients, providing added protection and reliability.
The deep convex barrier is designed for stomas that are difficult to manage, including flush, retracted, or stomas in deep skin folds. It applies moderate to high pressure to the peristomal skin to help the stoma protrude, minimizing the risk of leakage. Available in cut-to-fit format, the barrier can be trimmed for a custom fit. A full range of pouches—including drainable, closed, or urostomy options—is compatible with this barrier through a color-coded mechanical coupling system.
