Stomacare ProtectorMax
Please read these instructions carefully before using the product. In particular,
make sure that you comply with the safety regulations as mentioned.
Instructions for use
Your family, friends, fellow Ostomates or perhaps your wound nurse have
advised you to wear a ProtectorMax. For optimal care, the user should read
these instructions carefully before using the device. This product is a medical
device and is intended for use by one person only.
Intended use of the product
The ProtectorMax is used to protect the stoma and offers the physically active
Ostomate additional protection against pressure and undesired force effects
on the stoma, e.g. during exercise or pressure on the stoma caused by the seat
belt. The ProtectorMax offers Osomates safety and protection in everyday life.
Packaging content
First check that the contents of the packaging are complete and undamaged.
If this is not the case, please contact the person from whom you purchased the
product directly. The packaging contains the following parts:
• ProtectorMax
• Elastic strap with adjustable sliding and fastening buckles
• Instruction manual
• Protective box
Applying the ProtectorMax
In order to wear the ProtectorMax correctly, you should preferably put it on lying
down when applying for the first time. The strap is tightnened enough, in a way
a hand can still be placed in between. The ProtectorMax then sits tight enough
without migrating, but still wears comfortably.

The ProtectorMax is not intended for use during water sports activities.
However, in case of contact with chlorine or saltwater, it is advisable to clean it

Existing user risks
No user risks are known. Please check your skin condition on a daily base. If
the first signs of skin irritation, redness or swelling appear, please remove the
ProtectorMax immediately and contact your wound nurse.
Warning
The ProtectorMax should not be adjusted too tight, but tensioned enough so a
hand can still slide in between. The ProtectorMax should not come into direct
contact with open wounds and should be worn on dry skin. The use of lotions
or creams is not recommended and should first be discussed with your wound
nurse or physician.
Maintenance
In order to increase the lifespan, it is advisable to store the ProtectorMax in the

from deformation, external pressure effects or possible weathering influences.
