Would you be interested in helping us with this article focused on surgical closure methods for people undergoing stoma (colostomy or ileostomy) reversal?

I am looking for a consumer who would be willing to peer review this Cochrane systematic review “Purse-string skin closure versus linear skin closure in people undergoing stoma reversal.” Cochrane considers a consumer to be a person with experience of the condition (in this case, stoma reversal), either as a patient or as a carer/family member of a patient. From a consumer perspective, we are interested if the language of the review, especially the language used in the Plain Language Summary, is accessible and if it feels relevant for those experiencing stoma reversal, such that it will be helpful to patients and carers with healthcare decision making.

While you are welcome to provide feedback on any aspect of the review, you can focus your attention on the summary sections. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task, that does not overburden consumer reviewers.

Thank you in advance for considering!
