Comparing Hollister and Coloplast Ostomy Bags

Topic Explanation:
The forum topic is about a user's experience with two different ostomy bags, one from Hollister and the other from Coloplast, for their urostomy. They share their preference for the Coloplast bag due to its adhesive and drain system, and express interest in trying a two-piece Coloplast bag.

Advice and Insights:
- Coloplast Sensura Mio (one-piece) is recommended for its reliable adhesive, comfortable design, and less crinkling noise compared to other bags.
- Wearing the ostomy bag sideways with a Spandex maternity support works well for some users.
- For high output, a longer bag with a soft tap is preferred to prevent clogging and ease of use in public.
- Changing to a different Hollister barrier ring (11505 Skin Barrier Ring with CeraPlus) has helped some users to completely stop irritation and increase wear time from 3 to 7 days, proving to be more economical.
- The Coloplast Sensura Mio is recommended as a good option for urostomy management.

Helpful Insights:
- A user with a urostomy found the Sensura Mio to be the best option during a system change.
- A practical and efficient method for urostomy management was described, involving a bag with a tube going down the trouser leg to the level of the shoe, with a tap for emptying.
