The Ostomy Anatomy laminated chart is a valuable tool for any nurse, patient, health professional or student looking to learn about the anatomy of digestive and urological systems and in relation to the position of ostomies.

The ostomy poster shows the different types of ostomies, including colostomy, ileostomy and urostomy, as well as the importance of measuring a stoma, ostomy devices and stoma complications. 

Designed by our professional medical illustrators and exclusive to AnatomyStuff, our Ostomy Anatomy Chart shows the following anatomical details:

• Types of ostomies - colostomy, ileostomy and urostomy.
• Lateral cross-section view of a colostomy, showcasing the colon, muscle, subcutaneous fat, skin and stoma.
• How and why stomas should be measured with a measuring guide.
• A labelled ostomy device, to allow for easy identification of the parts.
• Stoma complications, what they are and signs to look for. These include infection, prolapse, necrosis and a double barrel ostomy. 

The anatomy chart poster is laminated for prolonged life and can be annotated using washable markers (not included). The ostomy poster is part of our comprehensive series of clinical skills charts designed for medical and health education.
