Do you know about stoma?

The word stoma is derived from the Greek word meaning mouth or opening. A stoma is the ultimate solution for certain specific diseases, where the intestinal tube is artificially pulled out of the abdominal wall to achieve drainage of secretions. In a stoma, one or both ends of the intestinal tube are led out to the body surface to create an opening. The main purposes of a stoma are to export intestinal contents, reduce intestinal obstruction, protect the distal intestinal anastomosis, and promote healing of intestinal disease. A standard stoma is 0.5-2.5 CM above the skin, with flat skin around the stoma, no folds or scars, and normal skin tissue. Usually, people think that the quality of life after having a stoma is very low, but in foreign countries, where stoma care has been developed for almost 50 years, stoma professionals and stoma people are compared to roses and set up stoma associations or rose associations to adjust the inconvenience caused by stoma with their optimistic mindset. The stoma is always moist and red in color. Since there is no sphincter around the stoma to control the excretory function of the stoma, an ostomy bag is needed in order to collect the excrement. In stoma care, patients often experience skin complications such as fecal water-like dermatitis: skin ulcers due to impregnation with urine and feces, enzymes or acidic and alkaline substances; in addition, incorrect use of the stoma bag and frequent removal can lead to the occurrence of avulsion skin. In this case, we can follow the following treatment: 1, do not use disinfectants to clean the skin, just wash with warm water and dry. 2.Spray skin protection powder for those with broken skin. 3.Apply 3 layers of skin protection film evenly, such as no conditions with frying salad oil can also be used. 4.Paste the stoma bag. 5, skin redness end broken person can use skin protection film.
