what are some standard ileostomy more prevalent, colon removed, terminal ileum pulled through abdominal wall and a segment is turned back and sutured to form stoma, discharge: liquid or paste, unpredictable drainage, contains digestive ezymes, requires collection pouch, skin protection
continent ileostomy colon is removed and a reservoir is created by looping the ileum back on itself, a valve is created with part of the ileum, discarge: liquid or pasted, management: drain periodically (a few tiems/day with a catheter) requires a stoma covering
ileoanal reservoir j or s pouch, colon removed and an internal pouch is made out of the ileum and placed in the pelvis, anus must be intact, discharge soft, formed stool, management is natural evacuation but may need perianal skin protection
transverse colostomy two stoma, proximal and distal, proximal:expels stool. distal expels mucus (some mucus may be passed through the rectum) discharge: semi-solid, unpredictable, may contain digestive enzymes. management: skin protection, collection pouch
descentding or sigmoid colostomy most common colostomy, discharge is firmer, resembles normal bowl movements, no caustic enzyme content. management: natural evacuation or irrigation, with protective cover or closed end pouch. if not regulated, used openended, drainable pouch
kidneys process an excreted urine and maintain the fluid, electrolye, and acid base balances of the body
ureters tubes (approx 10-12 in legth that collect urine as it is excreted from the
bladder reservoir for urine
urethra tube from the bladder to the outsdie of the body

how should the pouch fit should fit nug, stoma could be oval or round, can be swollen form 6-8 weeks
drainable bag might want to be used for someone who is not regular
closed ended bags are better ideally for regulated colostomies that are routinely irrigated, not output between irrigations
when should the pouches be emptied when 1/3 to 1/2 full to prevent leaks
why might a belt be used active in kids, poor connect, be careful with latex allergy made out of this,
