A stomal appliance for provisional ileostomy in neonates of low weight at birth who require temporary ileostomy.

There are no commercially available stomal appliances that are suitable for patients of this size. A rapid and easy method of constructing such an appliance is presented. The appliance protects peristomal skin, reduces nursing skin care time, and provides an easy and efficient method of collecting and measuring stomal affluent.
