The plate and the bag are separate articles, both have to be ordered to make the ostomy system.
Definition
Two Piece Ostomy Systems consist of a skin barrier (also called a flange, wafer or base plate) which attaches to the stoma and snaps together with the ostomy bag through a plastic flange. The base plate remains attached around the stoma, in general for 2 to 3 days, when the pouch is removed and replaced. The distal end of the pouch can be opened for drainage of the waste and emptied several times per day. This is a single-use device.

Instructions for use
Cut in the adhesive disc an opening of which the diameter should be as close as possible to that of the ostomy (preferably with curved scissors). Keep the plastic liner from the baseplate and use it as a template for the next appliance change
Preparation of the skin around the ostomy
- wash the skin with neutral soap and tepid water
- dry the skin carefully with a soft towel
- do not use ether or antiseptics as these make the skin more fragile
- use peristomal dressing paste for a better adhesion and to protect the skin
MSF requirements
For those who have to change their ostomy bag often, and for patients with sensitive skin, a 2-piece ostomy bag is more practical and less intrusive to the skin; it permits bag changes as often as necessary in order to avoid overload and detachment of the bag due to the weight of the content.
