Stoma AirClip – How it works!

They say that the best designs are the simplest, and Stoma AirClip is no exception to this general rule. It’s simple yet highly effective design does what it needs to do, reducing colostomy pancaking. It uses a lightweight flexible ABS plastic support that lifts the external bag wall away from the stoma opening. This enables a consistent air gap to be maintained between the stoma opening into the bag, and the bags inner wall surface, enabling gravity to more effectively move stool waste to the bottom of the bag (where you want it). This helps your stoma opening to stay free of stool build up, thus significantly reducing stool build-up restrictions and stoma pancaking (Hoorah!). 

A Velcro tab (loop side) is permanently attached to the underside of the AirClip, and the other ‘soft’ self-adhesive Velcro tab is simply stuck to the outer surface of the stoma bag, directly over the stoma opening into the bag (See instruction images). This then enables the plastic AirClip to lift the outer surface of the bag away from the stoma opening (you just stick a new 5mm Velcro tab to each new stoma bag and use the same plastic AirClip continuously).
