Multiple Choice Questions

1. A nurse is assessing a stoma on post-operative day 1 following
an ileostomy creation. Which stomal appearance requires
IMMEDIATE intervention?

 A. Bright red and moist

 B. Mildly edematous

 C. Dark purple to black

 D. Slightly raised above skin level

 ✔ Answer: C

 Rationale: A dark purple or black stoma indicates severe ischemia
or necrosis due to compromised blood supply. This is a surgical
emergency that requires immediate notification of the surgeon. Mild
edema, bright red color, and elevation are expected post-
operatively.

2. Which of the following pouching system choices is MOST
appropriate for a patient with a flush stoma located in a deep
abdominal crease?

 A. Flat flexible skin barrier with a belt

 B. Convex skin barrier combined with an ostomy belt

 C. Flat rigid skin barrier without accessories

 D. Flexible skin barrier with no convexity

 ✔ Answer: B

 Rationale: Convexity applies outward pressure to the peri-stomal
skin, causing the flush or retracted stoma to protrude into the pouch
opening. An ostomy belt enhances the seal and maintains the
position of the convex barrier within deep creases.

3. What is the standard recommendation for sizing the skin
barrier opening for a stable, mature colostomy?

 A. Exactly the same size as the stoma base

 B. 1/8 inch (1.5–3 mm) larger than the stoma base

 C. 1/4 inch (6 mm) larger than the stoma base

 D. 1/2 inch (12 mm) larger than the stoma base
