4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety of the LowCostomy appliance's peristomal adhesive interface composed of a mix of beeswax and pine resin.
This pilot study will explore whether preoperative application of stool from the stoma bag to the perianal area will prevent/ decrease postoperative perianal maceration in pediatric ostomy closure patients. It will also explore the overall safety and feasibility of this pilot study for larger randomized control trials. There will be a control group and an intervention group. The intervention group will apply stool from the stoma bag approximately 4 weeks prior to ostomy closure and fill out a compliance log and upload pictures weekly to the MyCHP (My Children's Hospital) portal. A validated diaper dermatitis score will be utilized in this study.
In this study, a novel ostomy ring device will be assessed for safety and efficacy in increasing the lifespan of ostomy pouching equipment.
Negative pressure wound dressings have been studied and shown to have applications in decreasing rates of surgical wound infections. This study studies the effect of a low cost needle-aspirated negative pressure compression dressing on rates of wound infection at prior ostomy site in patients undergoing ostomy reversal surgery.
