A reminder of the anatomical and physiological aspects of the digestive system will be made, in order to know its functions, its parts and its importance in the patient's health.
It will be able to identify which diseases or pathological health processes will lead to the performance of digestive feeding ostomies.

Postgraduate Diploma in Digestive, Intestinal, Feeding and Urinary Ostomies for Nursing.
Ostomies are artificial openings made in the body through the abdomen to aid in the elimination of waste, fluids or gas. Digestive feeding, bowel and urinary ostomies are the most common.
Feeding digestive ostomies are performed when part of the digestive tract is not functioning properly and nutrition needs to be provided through a route other than the mouth. In these cases, an opening is created in the stomach or small intestine to allow for the insertion of a feeding tube.
Intestinal ostomies are done when fecal matter must be diverted to prevent obstruction of the colon or to allow recovery after surgery. In these cases, an opening is created in the abdomen to allow waste to pass through an external or internal collection bag.
Urinary ostomies are performed when urine cannot be eliminated through the urethra due to illness or injury. These ostomies are usually performed through a urinary diversion, which connects the ureters to an external collecting bag.
