Function of the stoma is to divert feces or urine for elimination in a new location on the abdomen which is collected into a stoma bag. Stoma care involves several times in a day emptying the bag, cleansing the stoma plus surrounding skin to maintain hygiene, protect the skin and prevent infection. Stoma care also includes selecting the appropriate stoma appliances and accessories, removing and reapplying a new set of stoma appliances 4-5 days once.
