Leakage Problems with Coloplast SenSura Mio Convex Flip

This topic is about dealing with leakage issues when using the Coloplast SenSura Mio Convex Flip ostomy pouch. The person who started the discussion really likes how comfortable the pouch feels when first applied, but they've had problems with it leaking as soon as it starts to fill up. They currently use an Eakin Cohesive ring and barrier strips and are looking for advice from others who use the same system.

Here are some helpful insights and advice from others:

1. Some people have no leakage issues at all with the Coloplast SenSura Mio Convex Flip and can wear each pouch for up to 5 days without any skin problems.

2. For those who did experience leakage, some switched back to using the Coloplast SenSura Mio Deep Convex One-Piece pouches. This model comes in pre-cut sizes or can be sized according to the stoma diameter.

3. Salt’s ostomy rings are another option for creating a strong seal. Users have reported that these rings provide good adhesion and allow for wear times of around 15 days between full appliance changes.

4. Comfort can vary greatly from person to person. Some find the Convex Flip very comfortable, especially on uneven abdomens. Others feel that any pouch is less comfortable compared to using a stoma plug, particularly when hernia belts are involved.

5. When choosing between different systems, consider the shape of your abdomen (whether it's smooth or irregular) and the size of your stoma. These factors will help determine whether the Convex Flip, Deep Convex, or a two-piece setup will provide the best fit and seal.
