How to Use Sur-Fit Natura System

• Begin by cleansing the peristomal skin with mild soap and water (soaps should be free of oils and creams).
• Pat dry thoroughly.
• The skin should be free of any solvent or greasy substances.

Skin Barrier/Wafer Preparation

• Measure the stoma size with the measuring guide provided.
• Select a skin barrier/wafer with a flange (white ring) that is at least 1/2" (13mm) larger than the widest diameter of the stoma.
• If this size is not available, go to the next larger flange size.
• Trace the exact stoma size onto the center white release paper in the back of the skin barrier/wafer.
• The small starter hole should be in the center of your tracing.
• Cut along the tracing with curved, short-blade scissors.
• For skin barriers/wafers with precut stoma opening: Select a skin barrier/wafer with a precut stoma opening the same size as the largest diameter of the stoma.
• Do not enlarge the precut stoma opening.
• Remove white release paper from the skin barrier/wafer.
• Leave the outer release paper on the tape collar in place.
• Stomahesive Paste can be applied to the back of the skin barrier/wafer to further fill gaps between the skin barrier/wafer and the stoma.
• Allow the paste to set for one minute prior to application to the skin. (Do not spread the paste.)

Application of Skin Barrier/Wafer

• Center the skin barrier over the stoma.
• Press the skin barrier against the skin.
• If using a tape bordered skin barrier, remove the remaining backing paper one side at a time.
• During application, maintain gentle pressure on the skin barrier for 30 seconds to improve adhesion.

Attachment of Pouch

• Before attaching the pouch, allow a small amount of air to enter the pouch by gently separating it.
• If you are using a SUR-FIT Natura drainable pouch with a clip, for attachment of the tail clip, fold the bottom of the pouch over the tail clip only once.
• Press firmly on the center of the clip until it snaps securely closed.
• If you are using a SUR-FIT Natura urostomy drainable pouch with a tap, make sure the tap on the pouch is closed before attaching pouch to wafer.
• Align the flange on the pouch with the flange on the skin barrier.
• Press them together beginning at the bottom and circling around the top side of the flange.
• You will hear several clicks as the system locks into place.

Removal of Pouch

• To easily remove the pouch from the skin barrier, gently pull downward on the plastic pouch tab and lift the pouch off.
• Anchor the wafer by holding it down with your other hand.
• SUR-FIT Natura closed-end pouches: Remove and discard as needed. (Do not flush.)
• Filter covers are waterproof and should be used when bathing or swimming to prevent the filter from becoming wet.
• Remove filter cover after patting pouch dry.

Removal of Skin Barrier/Wafer

• Gently pull the skin barrier down, away from the skin, while supporting the adjacent skin with your other hand.
• To assist with the barrier removal, an AllKare Adhesive Remover wipe may be used to remove any adhesive buildup.
