Convatec Visi-Flow Colostomy Irrigation System

For colostomates who manage output through routine irrigation, the Convatec Visi-Flow line brings together everything needed to establish a predictable, controlled routine. Irrigation lets many people with a descending or sigmoid colostomy regulate elimination and go longer between pouch changes — and the Visi-Flow system is built to make that process cleaner and more comfortable. The clear irrigation sleeves let you see flow and returns, which is where the "Visi" name earns its place.

The heart of the collection is the Visi-Flow Irrigator (401989), a latex-free set that includes a soft stoma cone and a reusable collection bag. The cone design helps direct water into the stoma while reducing the risk of bowel perforation associated with older catheter-style tips. Paired with it, the clear Visi-Flow Irrigation Sleeves — 30 inches long — channel returns directly to the toilet and are offered in flange sizes to match your stoma: 1.5 inch (401911), 1.75 inch (401912), 2.25 inch (401913), and 2.75 inch (401914).

Choosing the right sleeve comes down to your barrier flange diameter, so match the sleeve size to the wafer you already wear. For Sur-Fit two-piece users, the Sur-Fit Irrigation Sleeve Tail Closure (175650) seals the bottom of the sleeve once irrigation is complete, and the Natura Irrigation Adapter Faceplate (401919) in a 2-3/4 inch flange lets the sleeve snap onto a Natura system for a secure connection.

A common question is whether these sleeves are sterile: the irrigation sleeves are non-sterile, which is appropriate for at-home routine irrigation. If you're new to irrigation, work with your ostomy nurse to confirm it's suitable for your stoma type before starting.
