Need Measurements for ConvaTec Bags

This topic is about someone who needs the exact dimensions of a specific ConvaTec ostomy pouch. They have run out of these pouches and need the measurements to order handmade ostomy covers as a birthday gift. Here are some helpful tips and insights:

1. Since the covers will be custom-made by a craft-seller, getting the precise size is crucial to ensure a good fit.

2. It's recommended to buy covers that are specifically made for the exact pouch model. Many people have found that generic or "one-size" covers can slip off or become too tight or loose as the pouch fills with output or air.

3. Consider whether you really need covers. Some people have stopped using them because they can add bulk and may detach easily.

4. To find the exact dimensions, check the ConvaTec website or contact Edgepark Medical Supplies, a U.S. distributor, for product specifications. They can usually provide the measurements you need.

5. Your stoma nurse can also be a great resource. They often have access to manufacturer sizing charts and can confirm the measurements, especially if you use a specialized convex appliance.
