Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -During an end colostomy, the end of the colon is brought through the abdominal wall, where it may be turned under, like a cuff. The edges of the colon are then stitched to the skin of the abdominal wall to form an opening called a stoma. Stool drains from the stoma into a bag or pouch attached to the abdomen.
Detailed explanation-2: -The equipment used in the process includes an irrigation bag, a sleeve, and a stoma cone. After irrigation, you’ll use either a stoma cap or a one-or two-piece closed pouch to simply cover and protect the stoma.
