ILEOSTOMYThe person with an ileostomy has no voluntary control

over the passage of stool or gas because, unlike theanus, the stoma has no sphincter muscle.

As a result, an external appliance must be worn at all

times.

Initially, contents are loose, thin, water and greenishlooking.

It will always be loose because the colon has either

been removed or bypassed with the surgery and less

water and salt is absorbed.

Stool will gradually thicken to a porridge or toothpasteconsistency.

The stool will pass into the appliance anywhere from

1 to 4 hours after eating and drinking.
