Description
ConvaTec Esteem+ Flex Convex colostomy pouch, one-piece system, opaque, with filter and window, with a flexible convex baseplate (Flex Convex, plateau size V3). It is cut to the size of your stoma (cut-to-fit), from 20 to 25 mm. The box contains 30 pouches.
Who it is for
- Suitable for: people with a colostomy who use a one-piece system with a closed pouch, and those who care for them.
Ways to use it
- Pouch type: Closed pouch: it has no outlet for emptying and is replaced with a new one when needed; it is the type for colostomy, as ConvaTec classifies it.
- One-piece system: the baseplate (the adhesive part that fits around the stoma) and the pouch are joined in a single unit; no separate baseplate is needed.
- Flexible convexity: the convex baseplate fits to body contours for comfort and easy positioning, according to the manufacturer.
- Hydrocolloid skin barrier: made to stay firmly in place and help minimise leakage; the soft tapered edges help resist snagging on clothing.
- Soft fabric: soft, quiet fabric for comfort and discretion.
- Easy-view window: a split-fabric window for accurate positioning and for observing the stoma and the output.
- Filter: the filter on the closed pouch helps minimise odours and ballooning.
What it fits
- Stoma size: It is cut to the size of your stoma (cut-to-fit), from 20 to 25 mm. Measure the stoma with a measuring guide, with help from your doctor or stoma nurse.
- Convex baseplate: plateau size V3; the manufacturer does not give the convexity depth. Whether you need a convex baseplate is decided with your stoma nurse.

Basic safe-use tips
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use. For example:
- Agree the size, the type of baseplate (flat or convex) and how often to change the pouch with your doctor or stoma nurse.
- If the pouch does not fit well or the skin around the stoma changes, tell your doctor or stoma nurse.
