Aim:
To systematically search ostomy clinical practice guidelines, critically assess their quality and clinical applicability of recommendations, and summarize the recommendations.
Design:
Systematic review.
Data Sources:
The PubMed, ProQuest and CINAHL databases, eight guideline databases, and three ostomy institution websites were searched on September 3, 2021.
Review Methods:
Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) and AGREE Recommendation EXcellence (AGREE-REX) were used to assess the guideline.
Results:
The initial search identified 1475 documents. Of these, 27 full-text documents were reviewed. Finally, 10 guidelines were included. Among these, the 2019 Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) guidelines had the highest total scores using AGREE II and AGREE-REX. The 2019 National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and 2018 European Hernia Society (EHS) were also ranked as high-quality and evaluated as "recommended." The median of the "applicability" domain was the lowest (45%) among the six AGREE II domains. The median of the "values and preferences" domain was the lowest (38%) among the three AGREE-REX domains. In total, 172 recommendations were summarized and parastomal hernia received the most attention among the recommendations.
Conclusion:
The quality of the 10 clinical practice guidelines varied widely. The three identified high-quality guidelines might be appropriate first choices in daily ostomy care and management practice and can be tailored to the local context. Ostomy guidelines require further improvement in the "applicability" and "values and preferences" domains.

This review only searched and evaluated relevant documents, so such details do not apply to this review.

01:24Ostomy Care
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening from the intestines to the outside of the body, allowing for the rerouting of effluent. This opening is known as a stoma. A stoma usually protrudes above the skin surface, appearing pink or red, moist, and round, and it lacks nerve sensations.
There are different types of ostomies, including colostomies, ileostomies, and urostomies:

Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
