Stoma Care refers to the specialized care provided to individuals who have undergone stoma surgery, where an opening (stoma) is created on the abdomen to allow waste (stool, urine, or mucus) to pass out of the body. This is done when the natural passage for waste elimination is blocked or damaged due to surgery, medical conditions, or trauma.
A stoma is a surgically created opening on the abdomen that connects either the intestine (bowel) or urinary tract to the outside of the body. It allows the patient to eliminate waste through a stoma bag (ostomy bag) instead of using the rectum or bladder.
