12 week stoma related cost of care. Cost of care includes treatments related to ostomy and/or PSCs (topical medications, clinic visits, and selected accessory use), social impact of ostomy and/or PSCs (missed work/ appointments), ostomy-related hospitalizations, emergency department visits, physician/clinic visits, medication use and therapies, and product utilization.

Observed 8 week Peristomal Skin Complication (PSC) rate. The validated Ostomy Skin Tool DET score was used to describe the status of the peristomal skin. Subjects were deemed to have had a PSC if the DET score was above zero due to anything other than normal postoperative healing and/or scar tissue, or the DET score increased above the normal score obtained at a previous visit.
