Bonus EP 24: Patient Reported Outcomes on Living with an Ostomy

On this episode of WOCTalk, we sit down with Renee Malandrino, MSN, RN, CWOCN, Margaret Goldberg, MSN, RN, CWOCN, and Lisa Peacey, BSN, RN, NSWOC, three of the authors of the WOCNext® 2022 ePoster, “Patient Reported Outcomes on Living with an Ostomy: Reporting on Three Years of Data.” Renee, Margaret, and Lisa discuss the Observational Study of Ostomy Consumers (OSO™) registry, the registry collection tools, and their thoughts on the current OSO registry survey results. 

The OSO registry provides an opportunity to collect prospective, observational, patient-reported outcomes data and explore the experiences of living with an ostomy over a 5-year period. This information will aid in directing future research to support or challenge current knowledge and therefore guide future clinical practice, clinical research, and new product innovations.
