Irritant contact dermatitis and stomas in palliative care


Loughnane J, Donnelly S, McQuillan R

Eur J Palliat Care 2007;14(2):53-6

Irritant dermatitis can be painful, distressing and difficult to treat. In the palliative care setting, it can commonly occur as a complication of stoma and fistula formation, or as a side-effect of radiotherapy treatment. This article will mainly focus on the treatment of skin problems associated with stomas, but will also consider the treatment of other causes of irritant dermatitis seen in palliative care patients.
