NCT ID NCT07316530
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This small study tested a newly developed ostomy baseplate designed to better protect the skin around a stoma. Thirteen people with ileostomies tried both the new baseplate and a standard one for 6 hours each. The main goal was to see if the new baseplate reduced itching between 4 and 6 hours after application.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ostomy baseplate (medical device)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could lead to a better baseplate that reduces skin irritation and itching for people with ileostomies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early exploratory study with only 13 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The device only aims to ease symptoms, not cure the underlying condition.
