The ostomy bag is a bagged device used to help patients excrete wastes during treatment. Some diseases can cause problems in patients' digestive system, resulting in poor excretion of physiological waste. Fistula bag is an auxiliary medical device. By connecting the fistula with the intestine through surgery, the patient can excrete the waste through this pipeline.
Fistula bags are generally suitable for patients who need long-term waste excretion. Once the patient has difficulty in excretion, it may cause sequelae to the body, such as gastroenteritis and intestinal obstruction. The ostomy bag can effectively alleviate this situation, reduce the side effects caused by difficulty in excretion and improve the quality of life of patients.
When using the ostomy bag, we need to pay attention to some hygiene problems. Because the fistula is directly connected with the intestine, it requires high hygiene, and once infected, it may lead to the deterioration of the disease. Therefore, when operating the ostomy bag, it is necessary to do a good job of disinfection and cleaning to ensure the sterility of the instrument. In addition, patients themselves should maintain good hygiene habits to avoid causing infection.
