Brava Elastic Barrier Strips

For patients living with an ostomy system, barrier plate security is a concern. Brava® Elastic Barrier Strips consider this, offering a more customized solution that factors in how the skin moves and a variety of body shapes. With flexible application options, the result aligns with your body’s movements to create a more reliable seal and improve quality of life.

Benefits of Brava® Elastic Barrier Strips
For patients living with an ostomy system, Brava® Elastic Barrier Strips:

• Are designed to be applied to a range of barrier shapes and types, from flat to convex, to securely keep the wafer in place.
• Help keep the barrier’s edges from lifting and rolling, reducing potential detachment during day-to-day activities.
• Use a unique elastic that stretches with your body’s movements.
• Further factor in other aspects that could lead to detachment. As a result, the material absorbs moisture to continue providing a reliable seal.

Multiple Barrier Shapes
Available in Straight, Crescent and Y shapes, Brava® Elastic Strips’ elastic construction features thinner edges that can be secured to and remain on the skin without moving around or peeling off. Constructed like tape, Brava® Elastic Strips attach to the edges of a barrier while its shapes are compatible with several types of baseplates.

• Crescent shaped strips are ideal for oval-shaped baseplates and sealing the corners of certain square-shaped baseplates.
• Straight strips are ideal for square-shaped baseplates, aligning directly with its angles.
• The Y-shape provides a wider strip, which delivers more support for outward areas, including a hernia. In turn, the wearer has the freedom to bend and stretch without the ostomy bag coming loose.
• Latex-free construction accommodates individuals with latex tape allergies.
• Ease of application and adaptability help the user get a secure hold.

How to Use Brava® Elastic Barrier Strips
Stick one or two strips, depending upon the size of your barrier and security required, to the edges of the barrier. Leave a small lip similar to a picture frame around the perimeter.
