WHAT IS A PERISTOMAL SKIN DISORDERS?
- Any compromise in the integrity of peristomal skin (definition)- Wide range of incidence rates:
- 10,2 – 40% (review of 7 studies)1
- 18 – 55%2
- Lack of consensus concerning stomal and peristomal complications does not allow for comparison of prevalence rates

WHAT IS THE SACS INSTRUMENT?
- An evidence-based instrument developed out of a clinical need
- A systematic literature review revealed that no universal system existed to objectively classify peristomallesions according to type and location
- The SACS™ Instrument was developed to help establish a standard language for the assessment and classification of peristomal lesions
- Provides operational definitions for the consistent interpretation of peristomal skin lesions
- An objective classification system to document the incidence of peristomal skin lesions
L1 – Erythematous lesion(peristomal erytheme withoutloss of substance
L2 – Erosive lesion with loss of substance as far as and non beyond the basal membrane
L3 – Ulcerative lesion beyondthe basal membrane
L4 – Ulcerative fibrinous/necrotic lesion
LX – Proliferative lesion(neplasia, granulomas, osalatedeposit)
ORIGINAL SACS CLASSIFICATION
The SACS 2.0 Study: objectives
1. Completion of the classification to include an additionallevel of severity (L5)
2. Classification of all types of peristomal skin changespresent, eliminating the notion of «most serious lesion»

SACS CLASSIFICATION 2.0
Objective n.1: Completion of the classification to include an additional level of severity (L5)
THE SACS STUDY: TOPOGRAPHY (T)
TOPOGRAPHY (T)
Perspective of the HCP
- I = Upper Left Quadrant
- II = Upper Right Quadrant
- III = Lower Right Quadrant
- IV = Lower Left Quadrant
- V = All the Quadrants
Patient standing in front of the
HCP
The order of the quadrants around the stoma
starts in the Upper Left corner (TI) and ends
in the Lower Left corner (TIV) clockwise.
Objective n.1: Completion of the classification to include an additional level of severity (L5)
L5 – ULCERATIVE LESION INVOLVING PLANES BEYOND THE
MUSCOLAR FASCIA (WITH OR WITHOUT FIBRIN, NECROSIS, PUS OR
FISTULA)
We therefore proposed the sole inclusion of the condition relating to the detection of a new non-classifiable lesion (L5) — even though it has a low presence in our study (5%)

Objective n.2: Classification of all types of peristomal skin changes present, eliminating the notion of «mostserious lesion»
L2, TV: EROSIVE LESION WITH SUPERFICIAL LOSS OF SUBSTANCE
(LESIONS 1, 2 AND 3); L4, TII-III-IV – FIBRINOUS/NECROTIC
ULCERATIVE LESION (LESIONS 5 AND 6); LX, TIII-IV -PROLIFERATIVE LESION (LESION 4)
WHEN USING THE SACS 2.0 INSTRUMENT:
- Document each lesion observed
- Document the topographical location(s) for each lesion observed
The sole classification of the prevailing sign (most serious lesion) is reductive in most cases and not explanatory for the health professional. For example, ‘redness’ may exist as a single lesion (simple redness - L1) or co-exist together with an ulcerative fibrinous/necrotic lesion (L4) as a sign of inflammation/infection, but may also not be present in an ulcerative lesion (L3) as it is in the healing phase. In literature such situations may be referred to as primary skin lesions present at the onset of the disorder or as secondary skin lesions as a result of modifications over time caused by the progression of the disorder, manipulation, medications or the healing process5. During the course of the development of consensus it was thus decided that each lesion present in the peristomalquadrant should be classified.

CLASSIFICATION OF THE LESIONS IN THE PHOTO (EXAMPLE):
- L2, TV (lesions 1,2 and 3)
- L4, TII-III-IV (lesions 5 and 6)
- LX, TIII-IV (lesion 4)
L2, TV: erosive lesion with superficial lossof substance
L4, TII-III-IV –fibrinous/necrotic ulcerative lesion
LX, TIII-IV -proliferative lesion
L2, TV: EROSIVE LESION WITH SUPERFICIAL LOSS OF SUBSTANCE
L4, TII-III-IV – FIBRINOUS/NECROTIC ULCERATIVE LESION
LX, TIII-IV - PROLIFERATIVE LESION

The inclusion of an additional descriptive clinical picture of a lesion such as L5 and the possibility to classify any lesion present in the peristomalquadrant makes the classification more precise for the health professional.
We have maintained the basic characteristics of the original SACS Study, on the basis of which it is objective, reproducible and easy to use.
This upgrade tool offers, at all clinicians, a complete guideline for a correct interpretation and diagnosis of skin disorders, characteristics not present in other types of classification.
The use of the SACS instrument is important in terms of determining and documenting skin lesions, that it would contribute to the exact measurement of the prevalence and incidence of skin lesions, and that it would provide assistance in clinical decision making.
The low rate of lesion L5 is a limitation of this study, but only for the numerosity of the sample. However, the numerosity of this type of lesion is strongly influenced by risk factors such as: Abdominal operative procedure, operative time, emergency procedure and clean wound classification.Consequently the need to implement the existing classification with a type of clinical picture that interested the abdominal structures beyond the dermis.
FUTURE STEPS
• The study group is currently working on a NEW
DIAGNOSTIC PROPOSAL FOR EACH ‘L’ CONDITION, which, in all likelihood, we will refer to as ‘LD’ (LESION DIAGNOSIS) and to which will necessarily correspond a TOPICAL OR SYSTEMIC THERAPEUTIC
PROPOSAL referred to as ‘R’ (RESOLUTION).
