  Stoma appliances may be required after aggressive surgery, damage caused by radiotherapy treatment, injury, birth defects or disease. This book serves as the official manual of St Mark's Hospital. It covers both hospital and community stoma care, specific stoma procedures, aspects of nutrition and sexuality, types of appliance and the surgical techniques involved, appliance leakage, and children. This manual will be of particular use to both practising and student stoma care nurses and to ward nurses in medical/surgical units.
