(K3) General Session: Ostomy Consensus
Janice C. Colwell, MS, RN, CWOCN
Margaret T. Goldberg, MSN, RN, CWOCN
Moderator: Mikel Gray, PhD, CUNP, CCCN, FAAN
3.0 Contact Hours |
| |
|
At the first ostomy consensus presentation, the
topic centered on pouching system wear time. The principles
were presented and the discussion centered upon the definition
of wear time, an outcome to begin to establish standards in
managing the patient with a fecal and urinary diversion. This
year’s presentation will build upon wear time and begin
to examine other critical ostomy based outcomes. More than a
lecture, this session will rely on interaction between the moderators
and attendees, as expert clinicians and clinical investigators,
to establish the standards for measuring essential outcomes
when providing care to patients with ostomies. A white paper
will be posted on the WOCN Web site that will serve as the basis
for this discussion. It is a “not to be missed session”
for anyone planning, delivering, or supervising the care of
a person with an ostomy. |

Lea Crestodina, MSN, RN, GNP, CWOCN, CDE
1.2 Contact Hours |
| |
|
Educating ostomy patients post-operatively and
meeting the needs of established ostomy patients has become
increasingly challenging. The closure of UOA in the fall of

post-operative hospital stays. |

Describe “fast track” teaching strategies in the
acute care, long-term acute care, home care, and outpatient
setting. |
| |
|
3. |
Summarize creative methods of meeting the ongoing needs of
the ostomy patient in the absence of the UOA. |

| |
|
This expert session will address systemic and
local disease processes that can result in a loss of peristomal
skin and provide creative solutions to meeting the pouching
needs in this challenging population. |
| |
|
1. |
Identify systemic/local disease processes that result in
loss of skin. |
| |
|
2. |
