ConvaTec Eakin Fistula & Wound Pouch — Eakin Cohesive Barrier, Remote Drainage, Tap Closure, 3 Sizes

A purpose-built fistula and wound drainage pouching system with the industry-standard Eakin Cohesive skin barrier — transparent for wound tracing, flexible for irregular wounds, and equipped with a remote drainage attachment and tap closure for controlled, contained drainage management. The ConvaTec Eakin Fistula and Wound Pouch is a one-piece cut-to-fit drainage pouching system designed for the management of enterocutaneous fistulas, draining wounds, post-surgical drainage sites, and difficult stoma configurations where standard pouching systems cannot conform to the wound shape. The Eakin Cohesive skin barrier is the defining feature — a moldable, skin-friendly hydrocolloid-type barrier that adheres gently to irregular, contoured, and moist periwound skin while protecting it from the enzymatic and chemical damage of fistula and wound effluent. The transparent pouch film allows the clinician to trace the wound outline directly onto the pouch for precise, custom cutting — ensuring the barrier opening matches the wound exactly. The remote drainage attachment and tap closure allow the collected effluent to be drained in a controlled manner without removing or disrupting the pouch barrier. Available in three active sizes covering wound openings from small compact fistulas up to 9.7" x 6.3".

✔ Eakin Cohesive Barrier — Moldable, Gentle, Adheres to Irregular & Moist Periwound Skin    ✔ Transparent Film — Trace Wound Outline Directly for Precise Custom Cut    ✔ Remote Drainage Attachment — Controlled Effluent Drainage Without Pouch Removal    ✔ Tap Closure — Secure, Reclosable Drain for Controlled Emptying    ✔ 3 Active Sizes — Small, Medium & Large for Any Wound or Fistula Dimension

Product Details

Indicated For — Clinical Applications

• Enterocutaneous fistulas — primary management pouching system for fistula output collection and periwound skin protection
• Enteroatmospheric fistulas — open abdominal fistulas requiring large pouch coverage
• Draining wounds — heavily exuding wounds where standard dressings cannot manage output volume
• Post-surgical drainage sites — complex wounds healing by secondary intention with high or irregular output
• Difficult or irregular stoma configurations — irregular, retracted, or peristomal skin challenges
• Tube sites with drainage — percutaneous sites with concurrent effluent output
• Any wound or fistula requiring a custom-cut, contour-conforming, sealed drainage system
• High-output fistula patients where periwound skin protection from enzymatic effluent is the primary clinical priority

Note: Non-sterile — ensure wound and periwound skin are cleansed and dried as much as possible before application. For complex fistula management, consult a Certified Wound Ostomy Nurse (CWON) — the Eakin Cohesive barrier can be molded to fill irregular periwound skin contours before applying the pouch. Always measure and trace the wound outline before cutting to avoid over-cutting the barrier opening.

How It Works — Eakin Cohesive Barrier + Remote Drainage

Fistula and complex wound management fails most frequently at two points — the skin barrier and the drainage system. Standard wound dressings have no barrier against fistula effluent, which is often enzymatically active and rapidly destroys the periwound skin it contacts. Standard pouching systems use rigid pre-cut or fixed-size barriers that cannot conform to the irregular skin topography around complex wounds. The Eakin Cohesive barrier solves the conformance problem — it is a moldable hydrocolloid-type material that the clinician can warm and shape by hand to fill skin folds, creases, scars, and irregular periwound contours, creating a seal that standard flat barriers cannot achieve. The transparent pouch film solves the cutting problem — the clinician places the pouch flat over the wound, traces the wound outline directly through the film, then cuts along the trace for a perfectly fitted barrier opening every time. The remote drainage attachment routes collected effluent to a tap closure exit point positioned away from the primary barrier adhesion area — allowing the pouch to be drained without the mechanical stress on the barrier that direct bottom-drain systems create, extending barrier wear time and reducing the frequency of costly full pouch replacements.

• Eakin Cohesive barrier protects periwound skin from enzymatic fistula effluent — preventing the rapid skin breakdown that unprotected skin suffers
• Moldable barrier conforms to irregular wound margins — fills skin folds, creases, and contours that standard flat barriers cannot seal
• Transparent film enables direct wound tracing — no separate template needed for precision barrier cutting
• Cut-to-fit without starter hole — custom fit to any wound shape, including highly irregular fistula openings
• Remote drainage attachment reduces barrier stress during emptying — longer wear time, fewer pouch changes
• Tap closure provides controlled, reclosable drainage — prevents unintentional leakage during patient movement
• Odor-barrier film eliminates effluent odor — significant quality-of-life benefit for patients, caregivers, and clinical staff
• Flexible pouch conforms to body contours — patient comfort during extended wear
• Latex-free — appropriate for latex-sensitive patients

Choosing the Right Size

Application Tip: Warm the Eakin Cohesive barrier between your hands before application — the warmth makes it more moldable for filling skin irregularities around the wound. Place the pouch flat over the wound, trace the wound outline through the transparent film, cut just inside the trace line, and apply. The Eakin Cohesive barrier will adhere to moist skin — no need to fully dry the periwound skin before application.
