Dehydration Is the Most Common Indication for Readmission After Diverting Ileostomy Creation

Abstract: Readmission after colon or rectal resection with diverting loop ileostomy was high at 16.9%. Dehydration was the major cause for readmission. Patients receiving diuretics are at increased risk for readmission for dehydration. High-risk patients should be treated more cautiously as inpatients and closely monitored in the outpatient setting to help reduce dehydration and readmission.

“…Stoma-related complications were experienced by 42.6% of patients in the LC group and accounted for 83% of LC readmissions. Although this rate of ileostomy morbidity is comparable to rates reported in the literature, it is considerably higher than that seen in the EC group [4,5,7,8,13,29]. The healthcare costs associated with these complications are evident in this study, with the increased readmission rate being a major source of increased hospital costs in the LC group.…”

“…However, this protective benefit is unfortunately often at the expense of significant stoma-related morbidity. Defunctioning loop ileostomies are typically reversed after a period of 8-12 weeks, during which time as many as 19-74% of ileostomy patients will experience ileostomy-related complications [4,5,6,7,8]. …”

“…Obviously, AL rates are only calculated for patients in whom an anastomosis has been created. Therefore hospitals with lower rates of patients with anastomoses could automatically have better scores without providing better quality of care, as the stoma itself may cause morbidity, lead to increased readmissions51 52 and may be associated with morbidity at the time of surgical removal of the stoma 53. In reality, there is probably an optimum percentage of defunctioning stomas and end colostomies to be constructed, and AL rates should always be seen in the light of these percentages.…”

“…Estas apresentam elevados índices de morbimortalidade, o que contribui para a diminuição da qualidade de vida dos pacientes estomizados (6,10) . As complicações, que podem ser classificadas em recentes ou tardias, geram hospitalizações mais longas e maiores taxas de readmissão, cursando com elevados custos hospitalares (11) . As complicações recentes abrangem, principalmente, o sítio inapropriado, escoriação em pele, retração ou necrose do estoma, desidratação e escape do conteúdo colônico, que causam ferimentos à pele.…”
