Stoma though saves life but it itself causes lot of problems and the most dreaded one is peristomal skin excoriation. Excoriated skin is defined as that which has been traumatized, worn away, or abraded, often in the presence of maceration due to incontinence. Cost of care was increasing day by day, unless this excoriation will treated. Most important and initial strategy in management of any disease was a thorough assessment. Lack of assessment is one of the major riddle in management of any disease. Currently there was no assessment tool for assessment of skin excoriation from ileostomy. No any proper guidelines or protocols are available yet at worldwide for assessment of ileostomy MASD except one SOP for ostomy care. Present study was aims to developed an assessment tool for “Ileostomy Moisture Associated Skin Damage”. Study was Multicentre and participant from India and Indonesia (N=125) were enrolled. All participants have a well established knowledge of ileostomy skin damage as all of participants had work with ileostomy patients. More than the half of participants were graduates (68) and postgraduates (17). 117 participants were enterostomal therapist and remaining 08 participants were company personnel. Different types of ileostomy excoriation photographs were send to study participant and then asked to give stages of ileostomy skin excoriation along with suggestions. Among the 125 participants of the study who are mostly ostomy care nurses, registered a renowned figure of 100% of agreement with the study which means no sample was refused to be a participant.
