The parents of children with ostomies are faced with the challenge of successfully living with and managing their child's ostomy. These families need practical information and support, both from the professional community and from parents who have shared the responsibility of a child with an ostomy. A parental support network has been developed throughout the country to address some of the needs of these families. This article provides current information about the status of these networks: what they have to offer and how they can be accessed. These groups, which continue to evolve, demonstrate a trend within this unique population.

Its abilities to interact with both cells and matrix are responsible for its description and characterization as a multifunctional adhesive glycoprotein. Fibronectin functions to promote cell adhesion, cell shape and spreading, organization of the cytoskeleton, hemostasis and thrombosis, cell migration, and phagocytosis. Both in vitro and in vivo studies indicate that fibronectin interacts with cells important to wound healing, including platelets, neutrophils, monocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and epidermal cells. It promotes adhesion between cells and between cell and matrix, cell spreading, migration, chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and matrix and basement membrane organization. Fibronectin is consequently active during each stage of wound healing. Its importance in acute wound healing is now widely recognized. More recently, investigators have begun to study fibronectin's role in chronic wounds. This article briefly reviews fibronectin, outlines its role in wound healing, and discusses current research on fibronectin in chronic wounds.</p>","PeriodicalId":77205,"journal":{"name":"Journal of ET nursing : official publication, International Association for Enterostomal Therapy","volume":"19 5","pages":"166-70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12591654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
