Hollister 18753 New Image Closed Mini-Pouch (60/bx)

The Hollister New Image 18753 is a two-piece closed mini-pouch designed for use with any New Image skin barrier sharing the same 2-1/4" flange size. Because it's a closed-end (rather than drainable) pouch, it's best suited to colostomy patients with predictable, formed output who prefer to change and discard the pouch rather than empty it throughout the day.

The mini-pouch measures 7" in length — shorter than Hollister's standard closed pouches — for a lower profile under clothing. It does not include a gas filter, so if odor and gas release are a concern, consider the 18382 or 18383 New Image Closed Mini-Pouch with Filter instead. The pouch body uses Hollister's odor barrier film and includes belt tabs and ComfortWear fabric panels on both sides for comfort against the skin.

Hollister New Image Closed Mini-Pouch — Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the 18753 and 18752 mini-pouches? Both are two-piece closed mini-pouches with a 2-1/4" flange and 60 per box, from the same New Image line. Check each product page's specifications — differences between similar SKUs typically come down to details like transparency/opacity or minor material variations, so compare the listed specs side by side or call 1-800-453-8898 to confirm which matches your current barrier.

What flange size does the 18753 mini-pouch fit? It's built for a 2-1/4" flange, and works with any New Image skin barrier sharing that flange size.

Does this pouch have a filter? No. The 18753 is the non-filtered version. If gas and odor venting matters to you, look at the 18382 or 18383 New Image Closed Mini-Pouch with Filter instead.

Who is a closed mini-pouch best suited for? Closed pouches (as opposed to drainable pouches) are generally best for colostomy patients with predictable, formed output, since the pouch is discarded and replaced rather than emptied during the day. The "mini" length (7") gives a lower profile than Hollister's standard closed pouches. Your ostomy care nurse can confirm whether this style fits your output pattern.

How many pouches are in a box? 60 pouches per box.

What does "ComfortWear panels" mean? It refers to soft fabric panels on both sides of the pouch, designed to sit more comfortably against the skin than bare plastic film.

Is this product covered by insurance? The pouch carries HCPCS code A5054, which many insurers and Medicare use for two-piece ostomy pouches. Coverage and reimbursement depend on your specific plan — check with your insurer directly.

Do you offer free shipping? Yes — free ground shipping within the contiguous United States on orders over $100.

What if I ordered the wrong flange size or style? Contact Parthenon at 1-800-453-8898 or info@parthenoninc.com before opening the box. See our Return Policy page for full details, since opened medical supplies typically can't be returned.
