Assura EasiClose
A one- and two-piece colostomy and ileostomy pouch has an integrated Velcro closure system
The Assura EasiClose colostomy and ileostomy pouch eliminates the need for clips or clamps, making the pouch more discreet, comfortable, and secure. A built-in filter in every pouch reduces odour. Because of the wide variety of ostomates, the Assura EasiClose was designed in three different shapes—mini (small), midi (medium), and maxi (large). Soft cloth fronts on opaque pouches offer more comfort and discretion. On the one-piece Assura EasiClose system, the adhesive provides optimum skin-friendliness due to its spiral design, with alternating absorbent and adhesive layers. This adhesive is also very flexible and leaves little or no residue. Coloplast, Marietta, GA, USA.
