<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Ostomy System'''<br />
<br />
An '''ostomy system''' is a medical device used by individuals who have undergone an [[ostomy]] surgery. This system is designed to collect waste from a surgically created opening (stoma) in the body. The ostomy system typically consists of a pouch and a skin barrier (also known as a flange or wafer).<br />
<br />
==Types of Ostomy Systems==<br />
<br />
There are three main types of ostomy systems:<br />
<br />
# '''[[Colostomy]] System''': Used by individuals who have had a colostomy, where the large intestine is diverted to an artificial opening in the abdominal wall.<br />
# '''[[Ileostomy]] System''': Used by individuals who have had an ileostomy, where the small intestine is diverted to an artificial opening in the abdominal wall.<br />
# '''[[Urostomy]] System''': Used by individuals who have had a urostomy, where urine is diverted to an artificial opening in the abdominal wall.<br />
<br />
==Components of an Ostomy System==<br />
<br />
An ostomy system is made up of two main components:<br />
<br />
# '''Pouch''': This is the part of the system that collects the waste. It is made from a lightweight plastic material that is odor-proof and waterproof.<br />
# '''Skin Barrier''': This is the part of the system that attaches the pouch to the body. It is designed to protect the skin from the waste that is collected in the pouch.<br />
<br />
==Choosing an Ostomy System==<br />
<br />
Choosing the right ostomy system depends on several factors including the type of ostomy, the location of the stoma, the person's lifestyle, and their personal preference. It is important to work with a healthcare provider or an [[ostomy nurse]] to choose the best system.<br />
<br />
==Caring for an Ostomy System==<br />
<br />
Proper care and maintenance of an ostomy system is crucial to prevent skin irritation and infection. This includes regular cleaning of the skin around the stoma, proper application and removal of the skin barrier and pouch, and regular replacement of the system.<br />
