Intestinal ostomy base plates with a convex design are adhesive devices applied directly to the skin around an intestinal stoma. Their curved shape helps secure ostomy bags, especially for recessed or flush stomas, while protecting the surrounding skin from leaks and contamination. These devices are typically worn by patients managing an ostomy and are intended for single-use applications.
These devices are generally classified as single-use medical products and are self-applied by patients. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are typically subject to standards ensuring safety, adhesion reliability, and skin compatibility. Availability depends on local healthcare systems and prescription requirements.
