EP.TU.911Analysis of the outcomes following reversal of loop ileostomy

Aims A defunctioning loop ileostomy is constructed to reduce the incidence and the consequences of anastomotic leaks following sphincter-sparing colorectal resection. Its construction and reversal may be associated with complications. The aim of this study is to present a snapshot of the outcome of reversal of loop ileostomy in a teaching general hospital. Methods All patients whose loop ileostomy was reversed in 2018 were studied. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected. The outcomes measured were length of hospital stay, return of bowel function, morbidity and mortality. Results Nine patients had reversal of ileostomy by experienced colorectal surgeons during this period. The patients, 5 males and 4 females, had a median age of 58 years (range 20 to 77 years). The main indications for construction of a loop ileostomy were low anterior resection for rectal neoplasia (7 patients) and iatrogenic rectal perforation during hysterectomy (1 patient), and total colectomy with ileoanal pouch reservoir for ulcerative colitis (1 patient). The ileostomies were reversed between 5 to 10 months following the main operations. The postoperative stay was between 2 to 12 days. The complications included one anastomotic leak, requiring immediate re-operation, 3 wound infections and 2 incisional hernias. There were no postoperative deaths. Conclusion In this study our overall complication rate was well within the range reported in the literature, with only one patient requiring immediate re-operation. The presence of a senior colorectal surgeon at operation as well as careful attention to detail is key to keeping complications to a minimum.

Prevalência de complicações em pessoas com estomias urinárias e intestinais

Objetiva-se identifi car a prevalência de complicações em pessoas com estomias urinárias e intestinais ativascadastradas na Associação de Ostomizados do Rio Grande do Norte. Trata-se de uma pesquisa transversal,retrospectiva, com abordagem quantitativa realizada com 572 prontuários dos estomizados ativos atendidos naAORN de 1991 a 2015. Os resultados apresentaram predominância em indivíduos do sexo masculino (52,1%), ensinofundamental incompleto (51,6%) e renda de até dois salários mínimos (64,3%), sendo 76,2% colostomizados, 16,3%ileostomizados e 7,5% urostomizados. Entre as principais causas que levaram a confecção do estoma destacouse a neoplasia de reto (37,6%). A prevalência de complicações para o período pesquisado foi de 30,2%. Dentreas complicações mais frequentes destaca-se a dermatite (28,9%), prolapso (20,2%), hérnia periestomal (18,5%) eretração do estoma (17,9%). Concluí-se que a prevalência das complicações foi de 30,2% com maior frequência dedermatite, prolapso, hérnia e retração. Faz-se necessário a identifi cação das complicações precocemente evitandoagravos.Palavras-chave: Estomia; Complicações; Enfermagem. ABsTRAcTThe aim is to identify the complications prevalence in people with active urinary stomies and intestinesenrolled in the Ostomized Association of Rio Grande do Norte. This was a cross-sectional, retrospective studywith a quantitative approach with 572 records of stomatal patients seen at AORN from 1991 to 2015. Theresults showed the follow predominance: males (52.1%), incomplete primary education (51.6%), Being 76.2%colostomized, 16.3% ileostomized and 7.5% urostomized. Among the main causes that led to the manufactureof the stoma, a rectal neoplasia (37.6%) was highlighted. The prevalence of complications for the period studiedwas 30.2%. Among the most frequent complications are dermatitis (28.9%), prolapse (20.2%), peristomal hernia(18.5%) and stoma retraction (17.9%). It concludes that the prevalence of complications was 30.2% with a higherfrequency of dermatitis, prolapse, hernia and retraction. It is necessary a warning of complications early avoidinginjuries.Keywords: Ostomy; Complications; Nursing.
