The production of exudate is a normal result of the inflammatory stage of wound healing. However, the advent of moist wound healing has brought with it an understanding that moisture balance is the key to optimal outcomes.
Periwound moisture-associated dermatitis is marked by erythema (which may be harder to discern in persons with darkly pigmented skin), maceration (white, pale, or gray skin that is softened and/or wrinkled), and irregular or diffuse edges (as opposed to pressure ulcers which typically have distinct edges).
The following wounds are more prone to developing periwound moisture-associated dermatitis:
The following precautions can help minimize the risk of developing periwound moisture-associated dermatitis in at-risk patients and to minimize complications in patients already exhibiting symptoms:
There are several types of moisture that can cause peristomal moisture-associated dermatitis, including exposure to urine or stool, sweat, wound drainage, or other sources of water such as while bathing or swimming.
Leakage of stomal effluent onto the peristomal skin will cause inflammation and even skin erosion depending on the placement of the stoma (liquid and enzyme content varies along the length of the intestine).
The following factors increase the risk of developing peristomal moisture-associated dermatitis:
