Convatec recently participated in the 33rd Japanese Society of Wound, Ostomy & Continence Management Conference held in Shimonoseki City, Japan. The event took place on May 25th and 26th at Kaikyo Messe Shimonoseki, highlighting the global presence of Convatec's innovative healthcare solutions.

One of the main highlights of our presence at the conference was the presentation of our Flexi-Seal™ Fecal Management System to Japanese WOC Nurses, key FMS users. Convatec launched the Flexi-Seal™ PROTECT PLUS in Japan as of March. This expansion underscores our commitment to providing advanced solutions for healthcare professionals and patients worldwide. Visitors to our booth had the opportunity to learn more about our Flexi-Seal™ PROTECT PLUS.

At our booth, visitors witnessed the culmination of collaborative efforts between our experienced clinicians, ingenious engineers, and visionary designers. This dynamic teamwork, in close partnership with ICU nurses, has led to the creation of the Flexi-Seal™ PROTECT PLUS System – designed to optimize protection and minimize risk in fecal waste management. This innovation empowers nurses to prioritize what truly matters: exceptional patient care.

Flexi-Seal™ PROTECT PLUS Fecal Management System (FMS) is an indwelling fecal management catheter intended for use to manage fecal incontinence through the collection of liquid to semi-liquid stool and to provide access to administer medications. Flexi-Seal™ PROTECT PLUS FMS is designed with understanding to provide a safe, effective and dignifying solution to fecal management. It includes a self-closing catheter, a medication and irrigation port with Luer or ENFit™ connector, Diamonds™ Gelling Control sachets, and the PROTECT indicator, our unique over inflation warning system:


Clinicians and nurses expressed keen interest in understanding the intricacies of our fecal management system. Their active participation and curiosity underscored the significance of Flexi-Seal™ in enhancing patient care. Convatec's commitment to advancing healthcare was evident as we shared our latest technologies with the congress participants. Our booth became a hub of knowledge exchange, fostering conversations and collaborations that will undoubtedly contribute to the evolution of clinical practices.

At Convatec, we believe in empowering healthcare professionals to make a difference. Our involvement in events like the 33rd Japanese Society of Wound, Ostomy & Continence Management Conference reflects our commitment to supporting HCPs in their continuous pursuit of excellence.

Together, we're shaping a brighter future for patient care.
