5 Characteristics of Convexity1
Depth
The depth of the convex baseplate Is defined as the measurement from the apex of the dome to the base.
Compressibility
Compressibility is the capacity of the convex dome to be displaced or flattened.
Flexibility
Flexibility is how easily the convex baseplate can bend.
Tension Location
Tension location is the position in which the convex dome exerts downward and outward forces on the peristomal topography.
Slope
The slope is the angle from the base of the convex baseplate to the apex of the dome.
