Comfizz Girls' Stoma Support Vest
The Comfizz Girls' Stoma Support Vest is a comfortable and stylish support vest built to aid children with a stoma or post-surgery wounds. Its full-chest, gentle compression can support multiple or awkward stomas, often missed by ostomy underwear.
Who Is the Comfizz Girls' Stoma Support Vest For?
This vest is perfect for any girls with a stoma or recent surgical wounds looking for additional support and comfort. As a full-chest vest the Comfizz Girls' Stoma Support Vest can offer support to multiple stomas, and also to high up stomas or surgical sites that are difficult to reach with conventional high-waisted stoma support underwear.
Which Conditions Is the Stoma Support Vest Appropriate For?
The gentle support offered by this vest has a broad range of applications:
- Securing and protecting conventional stomas and ostomy devices
- Reducing discomfort and the risk of further injury for herniated stomas and peristomal skin (the skin around the stoma)
- Guarding and maintaining post surgery dressings, particularly from abdominal surgery
- Supporting multiple stomas
- Supporting high stomas that cannot be reached by conventional high-waisted stoma support underwear
- Protecting A.C.E. sites

Is This Stoma Vest Discreet?
This vest is a great option for children who want greater privacy around their ostomy device. The gentle compression has a flattening effect to prevent bulky ostomy devices from being on show and it also looks like a regular vest, rather than medical underwear. In particular, the vest can give children more confidence during PE - both while exercising and while changing.

This vest applies gentle support and compression across the whole chest. While there are products which supply greater levels of support or protection, this vest is discreet and comfortable, and should be adequate for most children with stomas, A.C.E. sites or surgical dressings.

How Will This Vest Help with an Ostomy Pouch?
The Comfizz Men's Ostomy Support Vest offers secure and discreet support to any ostomy device. Since this vest covers the full chest, it is perfect for children with multiple, high or awkward stomas or ostomy devices, who struggle to receive support from conventional ostomy underwear.
Not only does the gentle compression of this vest prevent the child's ostomy pouch from moving about or becoming dislodged during physical activity, it also conceals and flattens it so they can remain confident even when changing. At the same time it aids in the flow of gas from the girl's bag, and prevents bloat.

No, the support provided by the Comfizz Girls' Stoma Support Vest is firm but gentle, and will not put unnecessary pressure on a stoma or ostomy device.

Beyond the class, this vest offers privacy in the changing room by obscuring the child's stoma and ostomy device.
Is the Comfizz Girls' Stoma Support Vest Machine Washable?
This vest is machine washable at 40ºC, so there is no need to worry about inconvenient hand-washing routines. It is not, however, appropriate for dry clean, iron, tumble dry or bleach.
What Kind of Underwear Can This Support Vest Be Worn With?
