Enterostomal therapy nursing data base for use with patients with ostomies.
The Data base is a tool for use by experienced and new ET nurses to document information gleaned during the initial contact with a new patient with an ostomy. The Data base may be used to structure the interview or simply to record the data. The summary section at the bottom of the form facilitates prioritization and listing of goals for care of the patient. The Data base documents data used by the ET nurse as she formulates her plan of care for the patient with an ostomy. By demonstrating the scope of the assessment and organizing its content, the Data base is one way of ensuring comprehensive data collection, an issue paramount to quality care.
