Filter by:This is a single-center retrospective cohort study on cancer patients who underwent emergency ostomy. Our objective was to compare the incidence of surgical complications as well as the length of hospital stay among three different techniques for ostomy confection (laparotomy, the conventional local approach, described as trephination, and laparoscopy).
The surgical ostomy process happens when it is necessary to open an organ (such as the intestine) in order to maintain a communication channel with the external environment. The need for ostomy surgery can happen as a result of illness, genetic factors, or trauma. Despite the extensive improvements in colorectal surgery, in case there is a need for total or partial extraction and exteriorization of the large intestine (colostomy), it is often necessary to perform a stoma that connects the end of the preserved intestine to the skin, in which cases it is necessary to place a a colostomy bag for stool collection. Thus, there is a substantial number of patients who need to live with a permanent abdominal stoma that significantly affects their quality of life, implying significant changes, both physical and social. It will then be necessary for patients to adjust their daily routines in order to deal with stoma care. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the Hydrustoma C3 medical devices (plate C3, capsule C3, night bag C3) in terms of its efficacy and safety as colostomy devices. It is also a primary objective of this study to compare the health-related quality of life in patients with colostomy when using a control and Hydrustoma C3 devices.
To evaluate the efficacy of the application of a neutral gel based on ecological extra virgin olive oil for peristomal skin hygiene in individuals with colostomy and ileostomy.
People with intestinal stomas can have, despite development of better ostomy products, problems with leakage which influence their quality of life negatively. To overcome this, Coloplast has developed a new supporting ostomy product called Heylo™, which has an adhesive sensor layer that should be placed underneath the baseplate. The sensor layer consists of an electronic sensor system that continuously detects moisture and output leakage underneath the baseplate. A transmitter connected to the sensor layer continuously evaluates the incoming information and sends a status to a smartphone software application, which based on a predefined flow decides which information to deliver to the user about the baseplate status. The overall aim of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the benefits of the new supporting product, Heylo compared to Standard of Care.
A randomised controlled feasibility study to compare two surgery techniques in the formation of a permanent end colostomy; the trans-peritoneal(TP) technique - currently, the most commonly used technique and the investigational extra-peritoneal(EP) technique, which has been reported in small studies to reduce the risk of parastomal hernia . This feasibility study will primarily aim to determine the feasibility viability of progression to a full multi-centre trial and test study design acceptability for participants. Participants will be asked to consent to be randomised to either the TP or EP procedure during surgery. Following surgery, participants will be followed up to a maximum of 12 months and asked to complete quality of life questionnaires (EQ5D and Colostomy Impact Score). Participant data will also be accessed by research teams at site to collect data on stoma appliance use and complications.
This retrospective study asses if a prophylactic, funnel-shaped, intraperitoneal mesh prevents parastomal hernia in patients undergoing abdominoperineal rectum resection with permanent end colostomy.
Aim of this study is to compare the cost-effectiveness and the quality of life in the 6 months following the surgery of a pseudo continent perineal colostomy (PCPC) and a permanent left iliac colostomy (PLIC) following an abdominoperineal resection (APR) for ultra low rectal cancer
The study investigates the performance of a new adhesive with regard to the skin condition
The study evaluates the efficacy of a new 2-piece appliance in patients with colostomy.
The purpose of this study is to test the benefits of an educational program, the Ostomy Self-Management Training (OSMT) program, for improving patient activation (preparedness to do self-care), self-efficacy (patients' ability to do self-care), knowledge of ostomy/urostomy self-care, quality of life, mood, use of medical services, and financial burden in patients with ostomies. The study will compare patients in the intervention (training) group and patients in the usual care group. Subjects' participation in this study is expected to last about 7 months. The PI plans to enroll up to 176 subjects at 3 hospitals (University of Pennsylvania, Yale University School of Nursing, and City of Hope in Los Angeles). All patient telehealth education will be coordinated by the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona.
