The BARD® DIGNISHIELD® Stool Management System (SMS) is an innovative medical device used in gastroenterology. This device is designed to diminish damage of delicate tissue according to leakage, pressure and friction. This tool management system protects users from exposure, odour and not damages any tissues. In order to meet required quality system guidelines, this system includes educational components and tools such as label of patient selection criteria and contraindications, patient and family education flyer, an orange sticker with patient selection criteria, contraindications and insertion sticker, and extended care information flyer for user’s convenience.

The DIGNISHIELD® SMS consists of:

• 60cc syringe

• Catheter tube assembly

• Collection bag

• A syringe with lubricating jelly

• Biological odour eliminator

• Tube clamp

The DIGNISHIELD® SMS is an advanced technology system according to some features. The mechanism is self-closing, so when collection bags are changed after the procedure, there is minimised exposure to harmful microorganisms. Exposure to microorganisms is also reduced by containing odour in order to improve safety, reduce cleanup and help users to keep their decency. Odour is controlled by Bard’s proprietary Permalene™ polymer technology, which increases resistance to odour more than 76% comparing with silicone tubing. The last feature that makes the DIGNISHIELD® SMS system so easy-to-use is decent sampling. The possibility of contamination is reduced when taking specimens, because of this system’s integrated sampling port.
