[Sexuality in ostomy patients].

Seventy adult patients out of 446 with surgical stomas were investigated to ascertain the degree of sexual disfunction caused by the operation. A questionnaire of 74 items was given to all patients. Statistical analysis was done for crossing variables using Chi Square calculations. Sexual activity decreased much more in males than in females, independently of age but in relation to the type of operation.

Use of an ostomy pouch for pediatric CAPD swimmers.

Children with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) run an increased risk of infection when swimming. In CAPD, the catheter and transfer set are the lifeline and must be kept free of contaminants. Children receiving CAPD treatments were given the opportunity to go swimming by using a pouching system. Instructions were given by both the enterostomal therapist and pediatric dialysis nurse. No cases of infection, peritonitis, or leakage developed with this system.
