Managing Chronic Health Needs in Child Care and Schools—Vesicostomy

Managing Chronic Health Needs in Child Care and Schools—Vesicostomy

A vesicostomy is a surgical opening in the bladder to the outside of the body (lower belly) that allows urine to come out, preventing urinary tract infection and damage to the kidneys. Urine drains constantly from this opening. The child will need to wear a diaper, training pants (Pull-Ups), or an incontinence pad. A vesicostomy is sometimes a temporary treatment.
