Global Summit Series: Stoma Masterclass
Shaping better patient outcomes: The role of moldable technology in ostomy care
Join us for an evidence-based educational webinar designed for clinicians specializing in ostomy care. This session will present key findings from the newly published Delphi Consensus, developed by a global panel of experts, offering practical guidance on the use of moldable technology to support better patient outcomes.
Topics include strategies for managing peristomal skin complications, enhancing patient independence, and supporting individuals with dexterity challenges. clinical case studies and a demonstration of Robo-Stoma, the first dynamic stoma model, will illustrate how moldable barriers respond to stoma movement in practice.
Objectives:
- Review clinical recommendations from the Delphi Consensus
- Identify patients who benefit from moldable barriers
- Learn from real-world case studies
- See moldable technology in action via Robo Stoma
- Apply insights to improve ostomy care outcomes
