BACKGROUND: Enteric @entity292 can be classified as enterocutaneous and/or enteroatmospheric. Both are devastating complications of @entity29 , abdominal surgery, and/or open abdomen. Enteric @entity292 are associated with a mortality rate varying from 1% to 33%; the main cause of @entity204 is sepsis. Coordinated and skillful efforts of an interprofessional team are required in customizing successful treatment regimens appropriate to each @entity1 's unique clinical scenario. CASE STUDY: A 65-year-old white @entity1 experienced an enteroatmospheric @entity292 @entity1 after @entity4037 repair. Care of this @entity1 was based on the complementary relationship between professionals from 2 disciplines: the wound and ostomy continence nurse (WOC nurse) and the nutrition support registered dietitian/nutritionist. Working together, they developed a comprehensive wound, ostomy, and nutritional plan. Initially, the @entity1 received parenteral nutrition exclusively. After the @entity292 tract was clearly defined, a feeding tube was placed into the distal limb of the @entity292 , and she received nourishment via a fistuloclysis (ie, enteral feedings administered via the @entity292 ). A special wound management system was created to contain @entity292 output while allowing feeding through the distal limb of the @entity292 . CONCLUSION: Enterocutaneous and enteroatmospheric @entity292 originating from the small bowel present a management challenge to the entire healthcare team. WOC nurses are often called upon to meet the challenge of maintaining skin health while promoting dignity and function. Nutrition support via registered dietitian/nutritionists play a critical role in managing the nutrition regimen for these @entity1 . In this case, the use of fistuloclysis met the @entity1 's nutritional needs while avoiding the risks associated with parenteral nutrition.
