1. A wafer (or skin barrier with flange) should have a stoma opening between 1/16TH of and inch to 1/8TH of an inch larger than the stoma with paste or barrier rings (like eakin seals) to fill in the gap.
2. When changing a urostomy pouch bend forward several times before removing your appliance. This activity discharges urine from the conduit, thus helping to keep the skin dry when changing the appliance.
3. People with a Colostomy or Ileostomy should never limit fluid intake in order to thicken drainage since this can lead to dehydration.
4. Foods that thicken stool: Applesauce, Bananas, Cheese, Boiled Milk, Pasta, Preztels, Rice, Bread, Yogurt.
5. Lengthy sitting in one place can force the pouch contents upward around the stoma and cause leakage. Getting up occasionally will help.
6. Take a few minutes and warm the barrier between your hands, causing the adhesive to warm to your skin. Warming the barrier can result in better wear time.
