Exploratory Study of Peristomal and Non-Peristomal Skin Barrier Characteristics in People With a Stoma (Stoma Imprint)

17. juli 2026 opdateret af: Salts Healthcare

An Exploratory Study of Peristomal and Non-Peristomal Skin Barrier Characterisation in People Living With a Stoma.

The purpose of this exploratory study is to obtain preliminary data on peristomal and non-peristomal skin barrier characterisation in people living with a stoma. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Is there a difference/similarity in skin barrier characterisation of peristomal and non-peristomal skin in people living with a stoma?
  • Is there a difference/similarity in peristomal skin barrier function of different stoma types (colostomy, ileostomy and urostomy)?
  • Does a stoma type/function, influence skin barrier characterisation of peristomal skin?

Participants will:

  • Attend a 1-hour study appointment
  • Undergo non-invasive skin procedures

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Healthy peristomal skin is vital, not only for stoma bag adherence and the prevention of leakages but for the stability to the skin barrier function. Peristomal skin refers to area surrounding a stoma and skin under the stoma bag adhesive. There is a lack of information and understanding on peristomal skin health and its skin barrier qualities. The study aims to gather data on peristomal and non-peristomal skin barrier characterisation in people living with a stoma. Participants enrolled in the study will undertake the following skin testing procedures:

  • Microbiome skin swabbing of peristomal and non-peristomal skin area
  • Skin profiles with Raman Spectrometer of the peristomal and non-peristomal skin
  • Biophysical skin property testing (skin damage, skin colour, redness, elasticity, sebum and pH) of the peristomal and non-peristomal skin
