Study Notes
Skin Breakdown Risk
- Diaper rash is one risk factor for skin breakdown
- Catheter use increases the risk of skin breakdown
Postoperative Complications
- Postoperative ileostomy may cause retention issues
- Postoperative ileostomy may cause skin breakdown
Ileostomy Management
- Ileostomy is managed with a stoma bag
- The stoma bag is attached with a flange
Ileostomy Catheter
- Ileostomy catheters are placed and removed through the stoma
- Removal of the catheter is done through the stoma after the ileostomy.
- The catheter is straight and removed after the procedure
- The catheter's placement after the ileostomy makes it a higher risk for infection.
Ileostomy Output
- The ileostomy output is a liquidy waste
- The ileostomy output is typically more formed stool
- The ileostomy output can be less formed and resemble diarrhea
Ileostomy Management Tips
- If a patient is refusing to eat, it may indicate a problem with ileostomy
- Rocking back and forth can be a sign of ileostomy problems.
- Encourage chewing food thoroughly
- Use of an enema may help with ileostomy output
- Keep the stoma bag attached and maintained for adequate drainage
- Encourage adequate fluid intake to help soften the stool.
Skin Breakdown Risk
- Diaper rash can increase the risk of skin breakdown
### Catheter Issues
- Urinary catheters can be abused, leading to possible complications
- Urine exists through the stoma
- A catheter is placed in the stoma
- Straight tubing is removed after the procedure
- Bigger tubing may increase risk for infection
- Foley bag may be used
Neurological Changes in Older Adults
- Neurological changes may occur in older adults
Retention Issues
- Retention issues may not always occur
Movement Restrictions
- Restrictions can impact stool formation
- Movements can cause diarrhea
- Enemas can be used to help with water absorption
Stool Consistency
- Looser stool can be caused by a lack of formed stool
- Liquidy stools are the least formed
- Large tubing can cause a less formed stool
Post Operative Considerations (Possible Interpretations)
- “postop” could be referring to a post-operative period
- “Mcsifiction” could be a misspelling of “medication”
- “fi'stofigurine” could be a misspelling of “fistula urine”
- “Ynimiskhadder” could be a misspelling of “in this area”
- “PYYnd mn catheter” could be a misspelling of “permanent catheter”
Other Considerations
- The text appears to be fragmented and may contain typos
- The context of the text may be difficult to understand without further information
