The frequent application and removal of stoma appliances can damage skin by stripping away the epidermal layer. Hydrocolloid flanges in either a one- or two-piece appliance hold moisture in the mass and are therefore more skin friendly than older appliances with acrylic adhesives, making hydrocolloid the choice for ostomy appliance manufacturers. Peristomal skin problems are a significant problem for the stoma patient. As many as one third of colostomy patients and more than two thirds of ileostomy and urostomy patients will be affected (Lyons and Smith, 2003). The correct and judicial use of barrier creams, gels, lotions, sprays and wipes in peristomal skin care can play an important role in giving the stoma patient a good quality of life. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
