Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client with a new colostomy. Which of the following actions should the nurse teach the client to perform to care for the stoma?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Empty the ostomy pouch when it is one-third to one-half full. This is important to prevent leakage and skin irritation. Emptying the pouch regularly also helps maintain the integrity of the seal. Applying petroleum jelly (choice
A) can interfere with the adhesive of the pouch. Cleaning the stoma with hydrogen peroxide (choice
B) can be too harsh and may damage the delicate skin. Changing the ostomy appliance every 12 hours (choice
D) is unnecessary and can lead to unnecessary skin breakdown.
