How to Use the
Natura
®
Low-Pressure Adaptor
Applying the System
Apply the Natura
®
Low-Pressure
Adaptor to the skin barrier:
Note:
When removing the skin
barrier from the package, DO NOT
remove the clear release liner on the
circular adhesive or the white
release paper from the flexible fabric
collar.
Attach the Natura
®
Low-Pressure
Adaptor to the ConvaTec Moldable
Technology
™
skin barrier by aligning
the coupling ring flange on the skin
barrier with the coupling ring on the
adaptor. Press the two coupling
rings together, beginning at the
bottom. Follow the edge of the rings
with your fingers, snapping the rings
together. Several “clicks” may be
heard.
Note:
To avoid confusion upon
removal of the pouch from the
Natura
®
Low-Pressure Adapator,
place the tab of the Natura
®
Low-
Pressure Adaptor down at the 6
o’clock position.
Prepare and customize the skin
barrier:
Place your thumbs or fingers at the
center of the starter hole and begin
to roll back the adhesive to form an
opening that fits the size and shape
of the stoma. The adhesive should
roll back easily. It is important to not
stretch the adhesive.
As you shape and roll back the ad-
hesive, periodically place the Conva-
Tec Moldable Technology
™
skin
barrier over the stoma, so it can be
viewed through the clear release
liner window. Once the skin barrier is
accurately molded to the shape and
size of the stoma, proceed to the
next step.
Note:
The use of scissors with a
moldable product is not recom-
mended.
