The stoma belt can play the role of counteracting abdominal pressure, fixing and supporting, avoiding the appearance of stoma hernia and stoma enlargement.
1. Counteracting abdominal pressure: the stoma belt can make local pressurization to counteract the external pressure when the abdominal pressure rises, avoiding the abdominal contents such as small intestine, large omentum and other tissues protruding from the stoma due to the rise of abdominal pressure and the emergence of parastomal hernia.
2. Fixation and support: the stoma belt can fix and support the stoma intestinal tube to avoid the intestinal tube movement caused by the change of body position and the phenomenon of stoma enlargement.
When using the stoma belt, you need to pay attention to the elasticity and should not tie it too tightly or too loosely, so as not to cause poor local blood circulation or not able to fight against the effect of abdominal pressure. When adverse reaction occurs, go to the hospital for examination in time, and deal with it correctly under the doctor’s guidance.
