Cutting
Trace the size and shape of the stoma using the stoma guide. Cut the hole to fit the size and shape of the stoma. To reduce the risk of leakage and skin problems it is very important that the hole fits perfectly around the stoma. Cutting is easier if you use a curved pair of scissors. Ensure that the skin is clean and dry before you proceed with the application of your bag.

Coloplast Night bag
For greater security we suggest you use the Coloplast urostomy night bag, specially designed to connect directly into the SenSura urostomy pouch. However, the SenSura urostomy pouches can be connected to all types of overnight drainage bags by using the supplied connector. The narrow end is pushed into the outlet of the SenSura urostomy pouch and the other end is connected to the night drainage system.
