Frequently asked questions
How many skin barriers are included in each box?
Each box of Convatec Esteem Synergy® Adhesive Coupling with Skin Barriers contains 10 skin barriers.
Is the system designed for low-profile wear?
Yes, the Convatec Esteem Synergy is specifically engineered to be a low-profile and highly flexible two-piece ostomy system. This design significantly enhances user comfort and discretion.
The key feature driving this is the Innovative Adhesive Coupling Technology:
- It utilizes a patented foam adhesive instead of traditional plastic rings.
- This results in a streamlined system with a low profile, offering enhanced discretion under clothing.
- The increased flexibility also allows for a greater range of movement.
Is this a flexible two-piece system?
Yes, the Convatec Esteem Synergy is a two-piece ostomy system engineered to be highly flexible and low-profile for maximum comfort and discretion.
This system utilizes patented Adhesive Coupling Technology instead of traditional plastic rings. This mechanism offers several advantages:
- Flexibility and Comfort: The use of a foam adhesive coupling makes the system inherently more flexible and adaptive to body contours than rigid systems.
- Low-Profile Design: It ensures a discrete fit by securely fastening the pouch to the skin barrier’s clear plastic “Landing Zone” flange without adding bulk.
- Gentle Protection: The barriers are made with Stomahesive material, formulated to be gentle and non-irritating to the peristomal skin.
How does the unique adhesive coupling function?
The Convatec Esteem Synergy system utilizes a patented Adhesive Coupling Technology instead of traditional plastic rings, resulting in an exceptionally low-profile and flexible two-piece system.
Here is how the coupling works:
- Mechanism: A specialized, patented foam adhesive is used to create a strong, yet flexible, bond between the ostomy pouch and the skin barrier.
- Flange: The skin barrier is mounted on a clear plastic “Landing Zone” flange, which provides the secure attachment point for the pouch assembly.
- Benefits: This adhesive-based design eliminates bulky components, maximizing comfort and ensuring discretion under clothing.
- Skin Protection: The system incorporates Stomahesive or Durahesive Convex skin barriers, which are formulated to be gentle and protective for sensitive peristomal skin.
Is the Stomahesive skin barrier gentle on skin?
Yes, the Convatec Esteem Synergy system utilizes Stomahesive skin barriers that are specifically engineered to be gentle and protective for peristomal skin. This specialized formulation helps maintain the integrity and health of the skin around the stoma.
What flexible sizing options are available?
Yes, the Convatec Esteem Synergy system is designed with multiple sizing configurations to ensure a precise and comfortable fit for the stoma. You can choose from three main options, depending on your needs:
- Pre-Cut Openings: These Stomahesive barriers are ready-to-use with pre-sized apertures, simplifying application. They are available in fixed sizes ranging from 5/8” up to 1 3/4”.
- Cut-to-Fit Openings: This option allows you to manually trim the barrier opening to perfectly match the precise size and shape of your stoma, providing a personalized seal.
- Durahesive Convex Barriers: For individuals requiring more specialized support due to challenging peristomal contours, the Durahesive Convex option is available in specific size ranges (e.g., Small, Medium, Large) designed to adapt and fit securely.
What are the available skin barrier types?
The Convatec Esteem Synergy system offers two primary types of skin barriers, both engineered to be gentle and supportive of peristomal skin health:
- Stomahesive Skin Barrier: Available in both pre-cut and customizable cut-to-fit configurations, offering flexibility and strong adhesion.
- Durahesive Convex Skin Barrier: This specialized barrier is available in mold-to-fit configurations, providing contouring and a secure seal, often suited for stomas requiring a convex profile.
What specialized skin barrier types are used?
The Convatec Esteem Synergy system offers two primary types of specialized skin barriers to accommodate different anatomical needs and ensure skin protection:
- Stomahesive Skin Barrier: This formulation is standard and highly valued for being gentle on peristomal skin, helping to maintain skin integrity.
- It is available in both pre-cut openings (various fixed sizes) and cut-to-fit options for maximum sizing customization.
- Durahesive Convex Skin Barrier: This option features a convex shape designed for specific anatomical requirements, such as retracted or flush stomas, to ensure a more secure and conforming seal around the stoma.
Is innovative adhesive coupling used?
Yes, the Convatec Esteem Synergy system features Adhesive Coupling Technology, utilizing a patented foam adhesive instead of traditional plastic rings. This innovative coupling method ensures a secure attachment of the pouch to the skin barrier’s clear plastic “Landing Zone” flange.
This design provides a high-quality, two-piece system that is characterized by:
- Low Profile: Remains discreet under clothing.
- Flexibility: Allows the system to move comfortably with your body.
Does this system offer secure, flexible attachment?
The Convatec Esteem Synergy system features an innovative adhesive coupling technology that provides a secure and flexible attachment without plastic rings, contributing to a low-profile and discreet fit.
