Current ostomy care relies heavily on tradition, but lacks robust research. Evidence-based practice is crucial for optimizing ostomy patient rehabilitation and care outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Surgical Care
  • Patient Rehabilitation

Background:

  • Ostomy management has evolved through clinical experience since the 1950s.
  • Enterostomal therapy emerged in 1958 to address patient rehabilitative needs.
  • Current practices, while tradition-based, face challenges in the era of managed care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the need for evidence-based practice in ostomy management.
  • To identify the paucity of research supporting common ostomy interventions.
  • To advocate for research to improve ostomy patient care.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review to assess existing ostomy-related research.
  • Analysis of empirical evidence versus objective data for interventions.

  • Examination of current care practices in the context of healthcare changes.

    • Main Results:

    • A significant lack of objective data supports many accepted ostomy care interventions.
    • Empirical evidence exists for some areas like stoma site selection and peristomal skin care, but lacks rigorous scientific backing.
    • Commonly accepted practices may not be evidence-based, potentially impacting patient care.

    Conclusions:

    • Evidence-based practice is essential for a scientific foundation in ostomy care.
    • Further research is needed to support pre- and postoperative care and rehabilitation.
    • Research will improve education, continuity of care, reimbursement, and patient outcomes.
