About Coloplast 95050 Ostomy Scissors

A properly sized opening in an ostomy barrier or baseplate can be an important part of preparing an ostomy appliance. Coloplast 95050 curved ostomy scissors are designed for making the circular cuts commonly needed when trimming a cut-to-fit barrier.

The curved blade profile helps guide a rounded cut. The upper blade includes small teeth intended to help hold the barrier material in place during trimming, while the rounded lower blade tip helps guide the cut and may be especially useful when working near the pouch material in a one-piece system.

These scissors are intended for cutting ostomy appliance materials before application. They are not intended for cutting skin, sutures, or other medical materials.

Features and Benefits

Curved blades for circular cuts
The blade shape is designed to assist with the rounded cuts used when preparing cut-to-fit ostomy barriers and baseplates.

Blunt, rounded tips
Rounded tips provide a less pointed profile than standard household scissors and can help reduce the chance of puncturing the pouch material while trimming an ostomy appliance.

Compact 4-inch size
The 4-inch length and finger-ring handle provide a compact format for controlled cutting and storage with ostomy supplies.

Latex-free construction
Coloplast 95050 scissors are not made with natural rubber latex, an important consideration for customers with latex sensitivity or latex-allergy precautions.

Designed for ostomy barriers and baseplates
Use these scissors to trim compatible cut-to-fit ostomy barriers, wafers, or baseplates according to the appliance manufacturer’s instructions and your ostomy-care clinician’s guidance.

Who May Find These Scissors Useful?

Coloplast 95050 ostomy scissors may be appropriate for people who use a cut-to-fit ostomy barrier or baseplate and need to trim the opening before applying the system. They may also be used by caregivers or clinicians assisting with ostomy appliance preparation.

Before cutting a barrier, follow the instructions supplied with your specific ostomy system. If you are new to ostomy care, recently had surgery, have changing stoma size or shape, experience recurring leakage, or have peristomal skin concerns, contact a WOC nurse or other qualified healthcare professional for personalized guidance.

How to Use Curved Ostomy Scissors

1. Wash and dry your hands, then gather your ostomy appliance and measuring guide.
2. Measure your stoma according to your ostomy system manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Mark the required opening size on the back of the cut-to-fit barrier or baseplate, if applicable.
4. Insert the scissors carefully and trim gradually along the marked line using small, controlled cuts.
5. Check the edge for a smooth, even circular opening before applying the barrier.
6. Follow your appliance manufacturer’s directions for fitting, applying, and changing the system.

Do not cut your skin or use these scissors for surgical, clinical, or household tasks. Replace the scissors if blades become damaged, misaligned, excessively dull, or difficult to clean.

Cleaning and Storage

Clean the scissors after use following your infection-control practices and the product or care-team guidance that applies to you. Dry thoroughly before storage. Store in a clean, dry location away from children and use a protective cover or pouch when practical.

Do not share personal ostomy-care tools unless they have been cleaned and handled according to appropriate hygiene procedures.
