    Background:

    • Ostomy surgery impacts patients across the entire lifespan, from infants to the elderly.
    • Effective nursing care necessitates a comprehensive approach focusing on the whole patient.

    Observation:

    • Patients undergoing ostomy surgery present diverse needs based on their age group.

    Findings:

    • Infants, young children, adolescents, and geriatric patients each have distinct ostomy care requirements.
