The purpose of this study was to determine average pouch wear times of persons with an ostomy living in the United States.
In this national survey, subjects were identified by ostomy nurses and through ostomy support groups in the United States. Participants responding to a survey represented all 6 geographic regions of the United States identified by US Bureau of Census.
Persons with colostomies, ileostomies, and urostomies were queried concerning their average pouch wear time.
The mean wear time for ostomy pouches in the United States is 4.8 days. Persons with urostomies reported an average wear time of 5.02 days (SD = 1.74), those with ileostomies reported 5.01 days (SD = 2.25), and those with colostomies reported an average of 4.55 days (SD = 2.08).
This study is the first of its kind to utilize a large, national sample to determine average wear time of ostomy pouches. Further research is needed to establish a benchmark for ostomy pouch wear time in the United States and to determine what factors affect wear time.
本研究旨在确定居住在美国的造口人士的造口袋平均佩戴时间。
在这项全国性调查中，造口护士和美国的造口支持小组确定了研究对象。参与调查的人员代表了美国人口普查局确定的美国所有6个地理区域。
对结肠造口术、回肠造口术和尿路造口术患者询问其造口袋平均佩戴时间。
美国造口袋的平均佩戴时间为4.8天。尿路造口术患者报告的平均佩戴时间为5.02天（标准差=1.74），回肠造口术患者报告为5.01天（标准差=2.25），结肠造口术患者报告的平均时间为4.55天（标准差=2.08）。
本研究首次利用大型全国样本确定造口袋的平均佩戴时间。需要进一步研究以确立美国造口袋佩戴时间的基准，并确定哪些因素会影响佩戴时间。
