Case studies

Case Study 1

A 63 year old female who had an A.P Resection in 2011. She also suffers with hypertension and angina.

She presented with a very painful broken and blistered area directly around her stoma 1cm in width. The soreness was exacerbated on moving as the pouch rubbed slightly on the area. As the first application of ILEX Skin Protectant had been administered the patient reported an immediate reduction in pain and the pouch felt more secure, especially with wearing a belt.
