2-Piece Closed Pouches
What Is a Two Piece Closed Pouch?
A Two Piece Closed Pouch is an ostomy pouch that is sealed around the bottom. Intended to be used once and then discarded, these plastic pouches are different from drainable pouches in that they cannot be reused or cleaned out. Ideal for people who have less discharge, a closed ostomy pouch is a convenient solution when you need to quickly change your bag while in public or when you are outside of the privacy of your own home.
How to Use a Two-Piece Closed Pouch
Using a closed pouch is a very quick and easy process. There is no draining required with a closed pouch; simply take off the bag when it is about half full, clean around the stoma, clean the landing pad, reattach the clean bag, and throw away the used bag. A closed pouch effectively eliminates any chance of seepage or odors leaking from the bottom of the pouch, resulting in a more confident user experience.
Different Types of Closed Pouches
There are several different types of closed pouches to choose from. Some of the different options available include
- Pouches with filters to effectively eliminate odor and gas build-up.
- Opaque pouches to completely disguise the contents of the bag.
- Transparent pouches to disguise the contents of the bag.
- Pediatric/children's pouches that are sized to fit a pediatric or children's sized stoma.
- Mini closed pouches that are sized smaller than regular-sized pouches for patients who prefer a smaller bag or who have less output.
- Maxi closed pouches that are sized larger than regular pouches for patients who prefer a larger bag, who are traveling, or who have a higher output.
