Abstract:
Objective:To explore the difficulties and needs of wound ostomy incontinence specialist nurses when applying convex baseplates, with the aim of providing a basis for standardizing ostomy care.Methods:Purposeful sampling was used to select 13 wound ostomy incontinence specialist nurses from tertiary hospitals in Hebei, Jilin, Hunan, Beijing, and Tianjin for semi-structured interviews between November and December 2024. Content analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:Two main themes were identified: application dilemmas and application needs. Application dilemmas included four subthemes: insufficient understanding of convex baseplate characteristics, unclear indications and contraindicated populations, lack of unified standards for assessment timing, and inadequate awareness of health education. Application needs included two subthemes: urgent need for related evidence-based evidence and a desire for clinical guidelines and expert consensus.Conclusions:Currently, wound ostomy incontinence specialist nurses in China face challenges in understanding the characteristics of convex baseplates, scope of application, identifying contraindications, determining the optimal timing for application assessment, and providing patient education. Administrators should develop clinical application standards for convex baseplates based on these challenges. Furthermore, researchers should develop relevant clinical guidelines or expert consensus for convex baseplate application in China, providing a basis for the standardized use of ostomy care products.
