Peristomal skin excoriation is the most common complication of any stoma, especially of ileostomy and entero-cutaneous fistula. Effluent is erosive to skin and at times leads to excoriation of skin and pain or discomfort to the patient. Many strategies or local medications are being used to treat excoriated skin and give comfort to the patient. Aluminium paint is a cheap and effective means of managing skin excoriation.
This case-control study was conducted in NEIGRIHMS from January 2015 to October 2020 on the role of aluminium paint for the management of skin excoriations due to stoma and fistula. A total of 19 patients were managed with aluminium paint and compared with the data of 19 other patients who were managed by conventional dressings as controls.
Aluminium paint helped in the earlier healing of skin excoriations and give comfort to the patients as compared to normal dressings.
Aluminium paint is safe and cost-effective skin barrier to prevent and to manage skin excoriations.
造口周围皮肤糜烂是任何造口最常见的并发症,尤其是回肠造口术和肠皮肤瘘。排泄物对皮肤有侵蚀性,有时会导致皮肤糜烂,给患者带来疼痛或不适。许多策略或局部药物被用于治疗皮肤糜烂,为患者提供舒适感。铝漆是一种管理皮肤糜烂的廉价且有效的方法。
本病例对照研究于2015年1月至2020年10月在东北印度卫生与医学科学研究所进行,旨在研究铝漆在治疗造口和瘘导致的皮肤糜烂中的作用。共有19例患者使用铝漆进行治疗,并与另外19例采用传统敷料治疗的患者数据作为对照进行比较。
与普通敷料相比,铝漆有助于皮肤糜烂更早愈合,并为患者带来舒适感。
铝漆是一种安全且具有成本效益的皮肤屏障,可预防和管理皮肤糜烂。
