Part 2- All about the Ileostomy

from The OZtomy Nurse Project Hosted by Felicity Rackham-Kay

An Ileostomy is a stoma constructed from either the end or a loop of small intestine out onto the surface of the skin to form an exit for intestinal waste. This weeks episode explores how this type of stoma differs from the colostomy, how it is constructed and its appearance on the body. We also cover what to expect when considering this surgery, and the recommendations for adjusting to life with a small bowel stoma, including diet and pouching options.
