Studies have identified that following stoma-forming surgery, 69% of patients have sexual health concerns (Van-de-Weil et al, 1991). However, studies suggest that this is an area of care that is frequently omitted by stoma care nurses (Borwell, 1997). By focusing this case study on the experiences of a patient cared for by the author, this article aims to identify patients' needs with regards to sexual health care following stoma-forming surgery. The author suggests that greater training on sexual health care should be provided for nurses. Nurses should discuss sexual health needs more openly with their colleagues to improve their skills, and with patients, so that patients are aware that sexual health is an area of value and that their concerns can be discussed and appropriately addressed.
研究表明,造口形成手术后,69%的患者存在性健康问题(范德韦尔等人,1991年)。然而,研究表明,这是造口护理护士经常忽略的护理领域(博韦尔,1997年)。通过将本案例研究聚焦于作者护理的一名患者的经历,本文旨在确定造口形成手术后患者在性健康护理方面的需求。作者建议应为护士提供更多关于性健康护理的培训。护士应更公开地与同事讨论性健康需求以提高技能,并与患者讨论,以便患者意识到性健康是一个有价值的领域,且他们的担忧可以得到讨论并得到妥善解决。
